The Chatri - Shivpuri district, Madhya Pradesh, India

kanishk joshi 12 months ago

The Chhatri shows a blend of Hindu and Mughal culture and was constructed during the Scindia reign in Madhya Pradesh. Surrounded by big trees, dense shrubs, and green orchards, these chhatris look extremely beautiful. The garden in which they are set is no less fascinating. Pathways intersect the garden. There are several gorgeous flower plants within the complex. It is bordered with ornamental balustrades for reasons of safety. Victorian lamps illuminate the garden. The Chhatris are dedicated to the Scindhias. They are the cenotaphs of Madho Rao Scindhia and his queen. They have shikhara type spires and there are several pavilions that bear close resemblance to Rajput and Mughal pavilions. Life size portraits of the Scindhias are there within the Chhatris and these are religiously worshipped with flowers and incense.
