Deeg is a sleepy town famous for its stunning 18th-century water palace built by Jat rulers. Almost no tourists. The palace fountains were designed to simulate monsoon — they still work during the Deeg Festival (August).

Food Safety
Very limited dining — one or two basic eateries. Carry food and water from Bharatpur (35 km) or Mathura (60 km).
