The Rani Mahal (Queen's palace) is near Haveli Man Singh. It is a one-story structure. It originally had four rooms but the only room remains standing today. The foundation of the four rooms can still be seen today. It is not an original part of the fort and is an example of Hindu architecture and was built around the same time as the Haveli Man Singh. Some historians have also written that Rani was the sister of Man Singh.
The room still standing today is about 20 feet high and beautifully decorated on the inside and outside. The roof of the dome-like room is like a flower. The inside of the roof is decorated with flowers, geometrical patterns, and faux windows. The room is about 8 feet by 8 feet.
