Dinner onboard Palace on Wheels |
Your royal adventure takes an intriguing turn as you arrive in Bharatpur, a city steeped in tales of resilience and architectural brilliance. Founded in the 17th century by the Jat ruler Maharaja Suraj Mal, Bharatpur once stood as an impregnable stronghold, earning it the formidable title of “The Iron Fort”—Lohagarh Fort. This awe-inspiring structure, with its massive defensive walls and encircling canal, exemplifies ingenious military strategy. Remarkably, the canal was once filled with crocodiles, enhancing its already formidable defences. Despite facing numerous invasions, Lohagarh Fort remained unconquered, its legacy of strength enduring through centuries. Beyond its defensive prowess, the fort’s elegant architecture and intricate craftsmanship continue to captivate visitors, standing as a proud reminder of its indomitable spirit.
Your day in Bharatpur begins with an early morning expedition to the Keoladeo Ghana National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a paradise for bird lovers. This vibrant sanctuary hosts an astounding array of migratory and resident birds—Siberian cranes, storks, herons, kingfishers, partridges, and bee-eaters—creating a mesmerizing spectacle of colors and sounds. It is an unmissable experience for nature enthusiasts, offering an intimate encounter with some of the rarest avian species in their natural habitat.
Following this enchanting morning, you’ll be treated to a royal breakfast at Mahal Khas, nestled within the ancient walls of Lohagarh Fort. This 198-year-old palace, once home to Maharaja Suraj Mal, continues to echo with history and grace. Today, under the ownership of Mr. Bhagat Singh, Mahal Khas offers a chance to dine like royalty within its majestic setting, setting the tone for the rest of your explorations.
From Bharatpur, your journey continues to Agra, a city immortalized by its grandeur and timeless romance. Located along the banks of the Yamuna River, Agra was founded in 1504 by Sultan Sikandar Lodi, but it was the Mughal emperors who transformed it into a glittering epicenter of culture and architecture. At the heart of Agra’s splendour stands the Taj Mahal, an enduring symbol of love and one of the Seven Wonders of the World. Built by Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal, this ivory-white marvel enchants visitors with its exquisite carvings, inlaid gemstones, and serene symmetry. As you walk through its manicured gardens and approach the gleaming dome, the story of eternal devotion etched in stone unfolds before your eyes.
Agra, with its rich historical lineage, breathtaking monuments, and artistic finesse, offers a fitting finale to your grand journey. Prepare to be immersed in the legacy of the Mughals, enveloped in the enchanting charm of a city that continues to inspire awe and wonder through the ages.
