This
Mahal is situated to the right of the quadrangle; the palace was built in the
17th century by Madhukar Shah, the deeply religious predecessor of Bir Singh Ju
Deo. The plain exteriors, crowned by chhatris, give way to interiors with
exquisite murals, boldly colourful on a variety of religious themes.
The
Mahal includes lavish accommodations that are marked by elevated balconies. The
various floors are interconnected by paths rise
that are proportional tiers on all four sides. The entire structure is marked
by towers and domed pavilions.
The interiors are beautifully done up with fragmented mirrors
and paintings on both ceilings and walls. Some of them are still in good
condition. Your tour to Orchha is incomplete without a visit to the Raj
Mahal. |
