Man singh Palace- Gwalior











Man Singh Palace, built by Raja Mansingh between 1486 and 1517 inside the complex of Gwalior Fort. A splendid display of Hindu architecture, the palace has 2 open courtyards bordered by apartments on two floors. This four-storeyed palace has large rooms, wherein some were venues for musical concerts, the others were for the royal ladies to sit and enjoy the music. The blue paintings on the walls with touch of green and gold look striking. There are 2 underground or basement floors with circular cells. They were used as prisons. The palace is also surrounded by other monuments like Jehangir Mahal, Shah Jahan Mahal and the Gujari Mahal. A special sound and light show is organized every evening for the visiting tourists at the palace.
