Description
Be delighted at every step and turn on this online experience streamed live from the grandstand of Indo-Islamic architecture in Orchha. This tour will also provide you with an excellent opportunity to learn about the fort's religious and architectural significance.
We will begin from the regal Raja Mahal, where you will learn about Raja Rudra Pratap who was the Maharaja of Bundelkhand. As we proceed to the 'Sheesh Mahal', I will pan my camera towards beautiful murals and zoom into wood carvings on doors. Each of these has a story to tell. I will dwell on one which is about the avatars of Lord Vishnu and the cycle of birth and re-incarnation according to Hindu philosophy. At the Jahangir Mahal, you will observe a beautiful convergence of Hindu, Islamic and Persian architecture which sheds more light on the cultural diversity of Bundelkhand. The fort is cradled in lush green forests, and we will end our experience savouring the gorgeous panoramic views all around.
