Jehangir Mahal, Orchha, Madhya Pradesh. Maps of India |
The Jehangir Mahal dating back to the 17th century A.D was built by the then ruler of the region Vir Singh Deo as a symbol of warm friendship and honor when the Mogul Emperor Jahangir, was on an official visit to the city. The structure has a beautiful artistic and traditional entrance gateway whose front part is covered with turquoise tiles on the wall. Nicely carved stone elephants guard the stairway.The wide gateway could allow the war elephants to pass through with ease and the elevation of the palace is such that it could give a good range for the cannons to reach the target.
