At a distance of 8 km from Jammu Railway Station, Amar Mahal Palace is a royal palace situated on the banks of the Tawi River in Jammu and Kashmir. It is one of the best places to visit in Jammu for those who want to know the history of the erstwhile Kingdom of Jammu and Kashmir.
Amar Palace was built in the 19th century by Raja Amar Singh, a Dogra king. The palace was the last official residence of the Dogra dynasty and the last king of the kingdom Maharaja Hari Singh. Maharani Tara Devi, wife of the late Maharaja Hari Singh (son of Raja Amar Singh) lived in this palace till her death in 1967. Subsequently, her son Karan Singh and his wife Yasho Rajya Lakshmi converted the palace into a museum to house rare books and works of art, with the they transferred the palace property to a trust named the 'Hari-Tara Charitable Trust'.
Built with red bricks and red sandstone, this imposing building was planned by a French architect in the European castle style. It has long passages on three sides, which are covered by sloping ridged tin roofs and the passages are supported on columns with a wooden framework. The first floor of the palace building has French windows with a connected balcony and the top floor has a bay window. The windows also depict triangular projections in classical Greek architectural style, which are fitted over ornate false columns. When built during the reign of Raja Amar Singh, it was the tallest building in Jammu.
