32 km from Bharatpur, Deeg was the tranquil retreat of the Jat rulers of Bharatpur. Though, its name has now been into obscurity, most of the palaces in Deeg are in an excellent state of repair. The one-time royalty of Bharatpur were living in their palaces as recently as 1970's. This is the reason why these palaces still retain some of their unique furnishings. The palaces sport well-planned Moghul gardens with calm pools and fountains. They are richly ornamented with carved cornices, pavilions and attics and the trophies collected by Jats in their various adventures.
