Palce is Very Beautiful but Staff & Museum Maintenance is poor experienced.

A very unique place in very remote area. They are tying to preserve the old artifacts

This is barely 50-60 Kms from the world heritage monuments of Khajuraho yet it is so underappreciated that I didn't get to hear about this while living just a few Kms from it for 6 months. Anyways when I got here, (Connectivity is very poor, you'll have to rely on own car or hired taxi) I was amazed to see the vast heritage this museum and the surrounding places hid. The artifacts ranged from sculptures from 10th century to paintings and dresses as recent as 18th century and everything in between. Entry charge is 20 Rs per person and additional ticket worth 50 Rs need to be bought for photography Just besides the museum is Mastani Mahal, in shambles due to negligence it faced for years, with people scribbling anything and everything on the walls. The monuments for Maharaj Chhatrasal and his wife are nearby too as are plenty of other historically significant places but all unmaintained and in bad state, with people using them for loitering and as their personal drinking dens. The whole region didn't even boast of a single decent restaurant. The place has lots of potential, but sadly as of now, it hasn't been tapped into at all.

One of the most unique architecture with octagonal shape of dome.. Blend of Indian arch and Non Stone building made with such beautiful multistory monument.. Need more renovation work and care to protect it for longer time.

A must visit place to konw the history of bundelkhand.

I like 👌🔥 this location very 👌👌 osm. Place

Wonderful place

Silent place must have visit their !!!

It is a modest museum which houses the relics of 12th, 15th, 16th, 18th CAD. All the statues exhibited here are broken. Location is pretty, all natural and green. Best to visit during monsoon

Nice place if you are interested in History. Several galleries house various excavated treasures & also historic artefacts. The inscription gallery is especially interesting! From 10th to the 17th century, you'd get a kaleidoscope of MP's History!
