  Jagat Shiromani Temple is a Hindu Shrine in Amer, Jaipur and is having a truely Hindu Architecture. It is dedicated to the Hindu Gods Meera Bai, Krishna, and Vishnu. Construction of this temple took nine long years between 1599 and 1608 AD by Queen Kanakwati, wife of Raja Man Singh. It makes it even more emotional to know that she, a mother, built it in the loving memory of their son Jagat Singh, who died at a young age of 34 years. The Queen wanted this temple to be universally famous, hence named it Jagat Shiromani Mani – meaning jewel on the head of Lord Vishnu. Since then, this temple has been a monument of National importance. Being affiliated to Hinduism, this temple is considered as an essential part of Amer history and has a beautiful statue of Lord Krishna. According to Hindu scriptures, it is supposed to be the same statue that Meera Bai worshiped in the State of Mewar.

The palace has always been much more than the grand residence of a royal family. It was also, from the start, a centre of patronage of the arts and of learning, and with its many temples, it is also a place of ritual and worship. On important festival days such as Gangaur and Teej, the procession of the image of the Goddess through the streets unites the City Palace and the people of the city in shared celebrations.
