Deeg is a historical city in the Deeg district of the Indian state of eastern Rajasthan. It is renowned for its architectural heritage, including palaces, forts, gardens, and fountains. Historically, Deeg became the first capital of the Hindu Jats of Bharatpur. It played a significant role in the region's political and cultural development due to its proximity to Agra. Later, Maharaja Suraj Mal ordered the construction of multiple buildings and landmarks in Deeg, as well as the renovation of the Deeg Palace, the only Hindu-style palace in North India.
