Mahal Khas Palace, Bharatpur

Lohagarh Fort, Maharaja Surajmal Road, Bharatpur, Rajasthan

Overview

Now converted into a Heritage Hotel, the Mahal Khas Palace was built by Maharaja Balwant Singh the former king of Bharatpur in 1826. Contrasting distinctly with the entire Lohagarh Fort, the palace possesses some impressive wall paintings, two huge courtyards adorned with elegant statues and carvings on sandstone.

Each room has beautifully designed marble tiled floors and arches with small fine pierced windows. Located within the complex of the Lohagarh Fort in the heart of Bharatpur, the Mahal Khas Palace is approximately 56 km from the Agra Airport, 2.5 km from the Bharatpur Railway Station, and 3 km from the Bharatpur Bus Stand.

Standing solidly in the face of many British attacks and frosted them to ends, the Lohagarh Fort proved the truth of its name. The British invaded the fort four times before they lost all hope and had withdrawn the attack. During British rule, the state had an area of 5,123 sq. km with its rulers enjoying a 17-guns salute. The state became a part of the domination of India in 1947A.D.

Mahal Khas Palace includes a restaurant, free private parking, a bar, and a garden. The heritage hotel offers a 24-hour front desk and currency exchange facility for guests. The palace is at a 6-minute walking distance from Ganga Mandir temple and 9 km from Keoladeo National Park.
