"Located at a distance of 1 km from Rana Kumbha Palace on the Chittorgarh Fort and 6 km from the Chittorgarh Railway Station, the Ratan Singh Palace or Ratan Singh Mahal is a large historical palace located in the Chittorgarh Fort. Located along the Ratneshwar Pond, this palace is one of the top places to visit in Chittorgarh."
