Summary
editDescription0121521 Man Singh Palace, Gwalior Fort Madhya Pradesh 03.jpg |
English: The palace was originally called the Man Mandir palace and Chit Mandir palace. It was built by Raja Man Singh. He was killed in 1516 as his army resisted an invasion by Ibrahim Lodi of the Delhi Sultanate. Barbur, the founder of Mughal Empire captured the Man Singh palace a decade later with the help of Mohammad Ghaus based in Gwalior.
The palace is one of the most beautiful palaces built by a Hindu king that has survived into the modern era. Built from sandstone, it was intricately carved and colorfully painted. It has several floors, with spectacular colorful upper levels. The palace also had two underground floors with deliberately confusing stairs and passages, which in the 16th century were a secret. It was meant to be used as a refuse and for escape when the fort was under a surprise attack. Later these floors were repurposed into a prison and torture chamber that became some key turning points of Indian history. These lower level floors are now open to public. |
