This was due to the fact that they had to comply with "purdah" - a strict rule that the woman was supposed to hide his face.

Hawa Mahal is adjacent to Zenana – the female part of the complex, which housed the harem. The Palace was designed at the request of Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh clan Kachwaha, ruler of Rajasthan. But its construction was only completed during the reign of Sawai Pratap Singh in 1799.
