which are covered with intricate carving, mosaic and minute mirror work that make the halls look very majestic and imperial.

''आमेर''' [[जयपुर]] नगर सीमा मे ही स्थित उपनगर है ,इसे [[मीणा]] राजा आलन सिंह ने बसाया था,कम से कम ९६७ ईस्वी से यह नगर मौजूद रहा है ,इसे १०३७ ईस्वी मे [[राजपूत]] जाति के [[कच्छावा]] कुल ने जीत लिया था। आमेर नगरी और वहाँ के मंदिर तथा किले राजपूती कला का अद्वितीय उदाहरण है। यहाँ का प्रसिद्ध दुर्ग आज भी ऐतिहासिक फिल्मों के निर्माताओं को शूटिंग के लिए आमंत्रित करता है। मुख्य द्वार गणेश पोल कहलाता है, जिसकी नक्काशी अत्यन्त आकर्षक है।यहाँ की दीवारों पर कलात्मक चित्र बनाए गए थे और कहते हैं कि उन महान कारीगरों की कला से मुगल बादशाह जहांगीर इतना नाराज़ हो गया कि उसने इन चित्रों पर प्लास्टर करवा दिया। ये चित्र धीरे-धीरे प्लास्टर उखड़ने से अब दिखाई देने लगे हैं। आमेर में ही है चालीस खम्बों वाला वह शीश महल, जहाँ माचिस की तीली जलाने पर सारे महल में दीपावलियाँ आलोकित हो उठती है। हाथी की सवारी यहाँ के विशेष आकर्षण है, जो देशी सैलानियों से अधिक विदेशी पर्यटकों के लिए कौतूहल और आनंद का विषय है।
नाम का स्रोत:
कुछ लोगों को कहना है कि अम्बकेश्वर भगवान शिव के नाम पर यह नगर "आमेर" बना, परन्तु अधिकांश लोग और तार्किक अर्थ अयोध्या के राजा भक्त अम्बरीश के नाम से जोड़ते हैं। कहते हैं भक्त अम्बरीश ने दीन-दुखियों के लिए राज्य के भरे हुए कोठार और गोदाम खोल रखे थे। सब तरफ़ सुख और शांति थी परन्तु राज्य के कोठार दीन-दुखियों के लिए खाली होते रहे। भक्त अम्बरीश से जब उनके पिता ने पूछताछ की तो अम्बरीश ने सिर झुकाकर उत्तर दिया कि ये गोदाम भगवान के भक्तों के गोदाम है और उनके लिए सदैव खुले रहने चाहिए। भक्त अम्बरीश को राज्य के हितों के विरुद्ध कार्य करने के लिए आरोपी ठहराया गया और जब गोदामों में आई माल की कमी का ब्यौरा अंकित किया जाने लगा तो लोग और कर्मचारी यह देखकर दंग रह गए कि कल तक जो गोदाम और कोठार खाली पड़े थे, वहाँ अचानक रात भर में माल कैसे भर गया।
भक्त अम्बरीश ने इसे ईश्वर की कृपा कहा। चमत्कार था यह भक्त अम्बरीश का और उनकी भक्ति का। राजा नतमस्तक हो गया। उसी वक्त अम्बरीश ने अपनी भक्ति और आराधना के लिए अरावली पहाड़ी पर इस स्थान को चुना, उनके नाम से कालांतर में अपभ्रंश होता हुआ अम्बरीश से "आमेर" या "आम्बेर" बन गया।
