lush greenery around making it picture perfect. If you are a lover of
nature or history or both, you are sure to fall for Orchha, the
beautiful ancient land in Madhya Pradesh
Orchha Fort is one of the beautiful forts which you should see when you visit the the town. Orchha Fort is situated on the island on Betwa River.
The scenic location apart, the fort has more to offer. It houses many
palaces and temples. The three most important palaces seen here are Jahangir Mahal, Raj Mahal and the famous Rai Parveen Mahal.
Jahangir Mahal reflects the architectural splendor that prevailed in
Orchha in the past. The views from the multi-storeyed balconies in the
palace are spectacular. Raj Mahal ranks amongst the most ancient
historic monuments in Orchha fort. Rai Parveen Mahal, which is in ruins
now was a beautiful palace with lush gardens surrounding it. Rai Parveen
was a poetess and a dancer. Her charm so attracted the king Indramani
who built the palace for her. Ram Raja temple, which is a very famous
temple in Orchha was earlier a palace. This palace turned temple is the
only place in which Rama is worshipped as a king and not a god.Chhatris were constructed in the past to glorify the contributions of the rulers of the mighty Bundelkhand dynasty. The Chhatris also are symbols of the rich cultural heritage and grandeur of the past. The 14 Chhatris constructed besides River Betwa reflect the amazing architectural skills of the craftsman.
