This
is
a
place
you
should
not
skip
in
your
itiinerary.
Once
you
enter
the
premises,
head
to
the
right
side,
which
is
where
you
will
find
the
palace
that
is
open
to
tourists,
as
the
house
on
the
left
side
is
occupied
by
its
residents
and
is
private.
The
'palace'
itself
is
reallly
small,
with
just
a
courtyard
to
see.
There
are
chambers
that
were
once
used
as
storage
spaces.
There
is
a
'diwan-i-aam'
kind
of
space
which
used
to
be
the
meeting
area
for
the
ruler.
But
what
you
need
to
admire
are
the
pillars
and
the
history
of
the
palace.
The
pillars
are
made
of
jackfruit
tree
wood
and
are
so
intricately
carved
with
breathtaking
artistry.
Some
of
the
details
are
extremely
well-preserved,
while
others
have
been
destroyed
by
a
black
paint
painted
over
them,
in
an
attempt
to,
ironically,
preserve
them!
There
is
a
list
of
the
rulers
at
the
entrance,
which
were
majority
women.
And
the
history
of
this
royal
family
goes
back
to
the
1100s!
That
is
some
impressive
history
that
is
hardly
known,
so
I
highly
recommend
a
visit
to
this
place
as
it
deserves
greater
recognition.
As
it
is
a
small
place,
it
would
take
only
about
half
an
hour
of
your
time.
