Highlights
- Gwalior Fort - Meet your chauffeur in the hotel lobby and drive to Gwalior to explore the massive Gwalior Fort. Its 35-foot walls stand as a testament to its reputation as one of India’s most impregnable forts. Inside, you’ll discover numerous palaces, intricately carved sculptures, paintings, temples, and water tanks. The most notable palaces within the fort are Man Mandir and Gurjari Mahal. Additionally, Teli Ka Mandir and Saas Bahu Temple are other attractions within the fort. Unique decorations such as a frieze of yellow ducks and mosaic tiling of elephants, tigers, and crocodiles in blue, yellow, and green give Man Mandir Palace its alternative name, Chit Mandir (Painted Palace). Gurjari Mahal, built in the 15th century by Man Singh for his favorite wife, houses the State Archaeological Museum, which boasts a large collection of Hindu and Jain sculptures. Next, visit Teli Ka Mandir, which is a unique blend of different architectural designs, and Saas Bahu Temple, renowned for its intricate stone etchings.
