Pitam Niwas Chowk

Pritam Niwas Chowk is one of the courtyards of the City Palace of Jaipur, leading to the Palace of the Moon (Chandra Mahal). Each of the four doors is dedicated to a god, and to one of the four seasons of the year. The most beautiful, and also the most photographed, is the Peacock Door, with a small representation of Lakshmi, the goddess of beauty. The doors are guarded by servants dressed in white with red turbans.
