Jai Vilas PalaceMadhya Pradesh boasts of a rich historical past and associates its name with many ruling dynasties of India. Thus, the state exhibits a landscape bequeathed with various trademark preferences of these rulers. It also claims distinction for snuggling three prominent World Heritage Sites, as declared by UNESCO, namely Khajuraho temples, Bhimbetka Caves and Sanchi Buddhist monuments. Each of them is an architectural representation that pays tribute to the rulers under whose regime it saw construction and to the deftness and precision of artisans who shaped it.

While the temples and Sanchi monuments depict beauty achievable in stone, Bhimbetka Caves pictorially represent the magnificence of art. Apart from them, the state also preserves many other monuments, each of them as appealing as the other. There are architectural legerdemains of Mughals, Paramaras, Holkars and Scindias. Adding on to them are some of the most beautiful mosques built during the rule of Begums. Singular in stance, steeped in history and immaculate in exposition; each monument of the state whispers a unique story of its own.

Khajuraho temples, entwined with spiritualism and eroticism, top the charts of Madhya Pradesh monuments. Located in Khajuraho village, these temples have been declared as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.

Divided into various groups, these temples cover an area of 8 sq miles.

Sanchi Stupas

These ancient specimens of Buddhist art and architecture in Sanchi date back to the early Mauryan Empire (3rd century BC to 12th century AD) and thus, form the footnote for understanding birth, flowering and culmination of Indian Buddhism. Apart from stupas & monasteries, there are also chaityas, gateways and temples in Sanchi.

Rajwada

With a 200-year-old history, this seven-storied edifice is an arresting monument in the heart of the city. Its upper floors are made of wood, while the lower three floors are made of stone. The place suffered three fire breakouts, the most devastating one in 1984. The rubble of the rear portion, with landscaped gardens & ponds, forms a major draw.

Lal Bagh Palace

Built in 1886 by Tukoji Rao Holkar II, its construction was carried out in three phases finally saw completion in 1921, under Tukoji Rao Holkar III.

Jai Vilas Palace
A gleaming white sandstone palace, Jai Vilas Palace of Gwalior was built by Sir Michael Filose. Designed to resemble an Italian palazzo, the palace was built to welcome the 'Prince of Wales'. It edifice magnificently synthesizes Italianate structure, with Tuscan and Corinthian architectural modes. Today, 35 of its many rooms form the Jai Vilas Museum and display the royal memorabilia of the Scindias, along with other regal splendors culled from all across the globe.

Jahaz Mahal
Built in the 15th century, by Sultan Ghiyas-ud-din-Khilji to maintain his large harem, Jahaz Mahal of Mandu simulates a floating ship. It lies on a narrow strip of land between the two lakes, Munj Talao to the west and Kapur Talao to the east. The double-storied pleasure palace presents a hypnotic picture, with balconies hanging over the water and gaping terraces. Witnessing the eerie silhouette of the structure in a moonlit night is an experience of its own.

Baz Bahadur's Palace
Surrounded by green vistas, Baz Bahadur Palace was built in the 16th century. The ostentatious halls and high terraces of the building resonate with the imperial stamp of Baz Bahadur and magnify its rich architecture. Beautifully amalgamated with Rajasthani and Mughal architectural style, the palace rests atop a hillock above Rewa Kund, & is part of the 'Rewa Kund Group of Monuments' in Mandu.

Hoshang Shah's Tomb
