Curly Tales And Mashable India Present “Palaces Of India”
In this series, we unlock the ornate doors of India’s lesser-known but equally splendid royal residences, each telling its own tale of architectural brilliance and cultural opulence. From the heart of Gujarat to the rugged landscapes of Rajasthan, our journey traverses four distinctive regions of India.
Embark on a virtual exploration inside Laxmi Vilas Palace in Vadodara, Gujarat — an architectural marvel that remains one of the largest private dwellings built in the 19th century. It is four times the size of Buckingham Palace. Here, we explore the fusion of Indian and European architectural styles that create a stunning synthesis of the East and West.
In Madhya Pradesh, the Jehan Numa Palace in Bhopal offers a unique glimpse into the legacy of the country’s only long-lasting female Muslim dynasty. Perched atop Shamla Hill, this colonial-style palace seamlessly blends British architecture with Islamic design elements.
An Exploration Steeped In History Of Regal Echoes Of A Bygone Era
The journey also takes you to the eastern state of Odisha, where the Dhenkanal Palace stands as a testament to the region’s distinctive architectural style. This living museum houses centuries-old artefacts and offers an intimate look into the life of Odisha’s erstwhile royalty.
The imposing Alila Fort Bishangarh in Rajasthan also features in our journey. A 230-year-old warrior fortress turned luxury hotel perched atop a granite hill, this architectural gem showcases the perfect marriage of Jaipur Gharana architecture with contemporary design.
So if you want to walk through the corridors of the past, stay tuned to our YouTube Channel and join us as we unravel the stories behind these magnificent palaces, their royal inhabitants, and their transformation into some of India’s most exclusive heritage hotels.
