Somnath, you may have found another pic of the palace here on IndiaMike, but the caption is wrong!!
No, its not Hari Niwas Palace!

Clue: The palace is now a museum.

Any takers?

Yes, its the Amar Mahal in Jammu, winter capital of Jammu and Kashmir.
And Hari Niwas (hotel) is just next door.
This was the residential complex of the Dogra dynasty which ruled J&K till independence. The last ruler was Maharaja Hari Singh.

I think Jorge's might be the big tank near Chandigarh. Sanjay's is the freaky crystal room at Auroville.
