Heritage hotel essence of India with relaxing Goa

Both Paylesstoursindia team and our personal driver Prakash went out of their way to make this tour a fantastic and memorable experience. We loved the heritage hotels in all the cities and towns, they all had really special ambience and design style that can be found only in India. This detail made our holidays in India even more pleasent, during hot days it was a pleasure to pop in the hotel for a short rest and a cup of coffee or just to refresh yourself. Driving with Mr. Prakash was really nice, he showed so much respect and attention to details at each step. We highly recommend this travel agency if you still hesitate which one to choose. Many thanks and best wishes.

Heritage Tour to India

I decided to take a lengthy tour that focused mainly on the historical and cultural aspects of different places in India and I can easily say that this was one of the best trips I’ve taken. All of the locations were beautiful and apart from a slight culture shock at first, I was able to get a feel and understanding of what it’s like in every place. Mumbai’s landmarks, Aurangabad’s many caves and Khajuraho’s temples were awesome. Ganga Aarti Varanasi was a major influence as well as Jaipur, Agra and Delhi. The guides were all very insightful, professional and kind and I learned a lot from each of them. They all provided information about each site in depth and the majority answered all of my questions with relative ease. The drivers were also very competent, courteous and professional and I particularly enjoyed the long drives in between the major cities. The meals included were good as I already enjoy Indian food. Amit, the tour organizer was especially helpful, followed up on all inquiries and the domestic flights arranged made the transfer easy. Overall, I had a wonderful time on this tour and I will always be grateful to everyone who made this experience possible.

Post-pick-up you will visit the following suggested places:

Massive Gwalior Fort, popularly called the Gibraltar of India, overlooks the city. Emperor Babur reputedly described it as "the pearl in the necklace of the forts of Hind." This fort's architecture is unique. It shows Chinese influence on Indian architecture, as Chinese dragons have been crafted at the hilt of the pillars. This influence was because of trade between China and India during that period. After the death of Sher Shah Suri in 1545, who was ruling North India at that time, his son Islam Shah shifted his capital from Delhi to Gwalior and constructed 'Sher Shah Mandir' or Palace/Fort in the memory of his father Sher Shah Suri. Islam Shah operated from Gwalior till his death in 1553.

Islam Shah had appointed the Hindu warrior 'Hemu' or Hem Chandra Vikramaditya as his Prime Minister in Sher Shah Fort for the first time, who later on became the Vikramaditya king at Delhi and established 'Hindu Raj' in North India, by virtue of winning 22 battles continuously from Punjab to Bengal and defeating Akbar's army in Agra and Delhi on 6 October 1556. He is also known in history as Samrat Hem Chandra Vikramaditya.

View from the summit of the Gwalior Fort showing the palace of the Maharajah of Scindia. Circa 1882. According to history, the original fort of Gwalior was founded by the Bargujar Kings during the 34th/35th century of Kali yuga as per puranas available with them. His palace is the most interesting example of early Hindu work of its class in India. Another palace of even greater extent was added to this in 1516. The Mughal emperors Jahangir and Shah Jahan added palaces to these two, the whole making a group of edifices unequalled for picture sequences and interest by anything of their class in central India. Among the apartments in the palace was the celebrated chamber, named the Baradari, supported on 12 columns, and 45 ft (15 m) square, with a stone roof, forming one of the most beautiful palace-halls in the world. It was, besides, singularly interesting from the expedients to which the Hindu architect was forced to resort to imitate the vaults of the Muslims. Of the buildings, however, which so excited the admiration of the first Mughal emperor Babur, probably little now remains.

The Telika Mandir or 'oil-man's temple', owes its name to Teli, a term for an oil grinder or oil dealer. Many suggestions have been put forward to explain this name historically, but in actual fact the name is not old, the temple being used for processing oil before the British occupied the fort and used the building, albeit temporarily, as a coffee shop. The Telika Mandir is the loftiest temple among all the buildings in Gwalior fort with a height of about 30m. The temple consists of a garbhagriha, that is sanctum proper for the deity, and an antarala to enter into the temple. It can be approached by a flight of steps provided on the eastern side.

The most striking feature of the temple is the wagon-vaulted roof, a form used over rectangular shrines which normally accommodated a row of Mother Goddesses. The goddesses from the interior vanished centuries ago and have not been traced, even in fragments. The exterior walls of the temple are richly decorated with sculptures, many of which are damaged; the niches, shaped like temples, are empty. The building carries a dedicatory inscription to the goddess in a niche on the southern side, but otherwise does not have any history. The architectural style, discussed by a number of architectural historians, points to a date in the late eighth century. The building was thus erected just as the Gurjara Pratihāras were asserting their power over central India. The entrance gateway on the eastern side is a later addition of the British period, made by Major Keith in 1881. It was erected as a way of saving various historic pillars and other pieces no longer in their original context.

Sasbahu Temple, also called the Sas-Bahu Mandir, is an 11th-century twin temple in Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh, India. Near the Gwalior Fort and dedicated to Vishnu in his Padmanabha form, like most Hindu and Jain temples in this region, it is mostly in ruins and was badly damaged from numerous invasions and Hindu-Muslim wars in the region. It was built in 1093 by King Mahipala of the Kachchhapaghata dynasty, according to an inscription found in the larger of the twin temple. The twin temples are situated in the Gwalior Fort

Within the fort are some marvels of medieval architecture. The 15th century Gujari Mahal is a monument to the love of Raja Mansingh Tomar for his intrepid Gujar Queen, Mrignayani. The outer structure of Gujari Mahal has survived in an almost total state of preservation; the interior has been converted into an Archaeological Museum housing rare antiquities, some of them dating back to the 1st century A.D. Even though many of these have been defaced by the iconoclastic Mughals, their perfection of form has survived the ravages of time. Particularly worth seeing is the statue of Shalbhanjika from Gyraspur, the tree goddess, the epitome of perfection in miniature. The statue is kept in the custody of the museum's curator, and can be seen on request.

Built between 1486 and 1517 by Raja Mansingh.The tiles that once adorned its exterior have not survived, but at the entrance , traces of these still remain. Within the palace room’s stand bare, stripped of their former glory, testifying to the passing of the centuries. Vast chambers with fine stone screens were once the music halls, and behind these screens, the royal ladies would learn music from the great masters of the day. Below, circular dungeons housed the state prisoners of the Mughals. Emperor Aurangzeb had his brother , Murad imprisoned , and later executed here. Close by is Jauhar Pond, where in the Rajput tradition, the Ranis committed mass sati after their consorts had been defeated in battle. At Man Mandir Palace, a poignant ambience of those days of chivalry and heroism still lingers in the silent chambers. A superbly mounted Son-et-Lumiere here brings it all alive every evening.

The sandstone mausoleum of the Afghan prince, Ghaus Mohammed, is also designed on early Mughal lines. Particularly exquisite are the screens which use the pierced stone technique as delicate as lace. It is on the way to Gwalior fort near Hazira from the Railway Station.

Built in the memory of Guru Hargobind Sahib , the 6th Sikh Guru who was imprisoned here by Emperor Jehangir for over two years. It is located on the Gwalior Fort. Distance from Railway Station / Bus Stand: 6.00 Kms Approx.

Situated on the Mountain Area at slopes of Gwalior Fort carries a unique statue of Jain Tirthankars. The largest Idol of Bhagwan Parshwanath on Lotus is the largest statue(in single stone piece) in the world, being 47 feet high and 30 feet in width. 26 Jain statues in a series give a beautiful and attractive picturescue. Built between 1398 to 1536 by Tomar Kings - these Jain Tirthankars Statues are a species of Architecture and a treasure of Old Indian heritage and culture.

Located near the Residency at Morar, the newly constructed Sun Temple takes its inspiration from the famous Konark Sun Temple in Orissa. Distance from Railway Station / Bus Stand: 5.00 Kms. Approx.

Timings: 10.00 AM to 5:00 PM (Lunch time: 1:30 PM to 2.00 PM)

A splendor of a different kind exists in the Jai Vilas Palace, current residence of the Scindia family. Some 25 rooms have been turned into the Jivaji Rao Scindia Museum, and in these rooms, so evocative of a regal lifestyle, the past comes alive. Jai Vilas is an Italianate structure which combines the Tuscan and Corinthian architectural modes. The imposing Darbar Hall has two central chandeliers weighing a couple of tonnes, and hung only after ten elephants had tested the strength of the roof. Ceilings picked out in gilt, heavy draperies and tapestries, fine Persian carpets and antique furniture from France and Italy are the features of these spacious rooms.

Eye catching treasures include: a silver train with cut glass wagons which served guests as it chugged around the table on miniature rails; a glass cradle from Italy used for the baby Krishna each Janmashtami, silver dinner services and swords that were once worn by Aurangzeb and Shah Jahan. These are, besides, personal mementos of past members of the Scindia family: the jeweled slippers that belonged to Chinkoo Rani , four-poster beds, gifts from practically every country in the world, hunting trophies and portraits. The Scindia Museum offers an unparalleled glimpse into the rich culture and lifestyle of princely India. Timings: 10.00 AM to 5:00 PM: Wednesday Closed

Even though many of these have been defaced by the iconoclastic Mughals, their perfection of form has survived the ravages of time. Particularly worth seeing is the statue of Shalabhanjika from Gyraspur, the tree goddess, epitome of perfection in miniature. The statue is kept in the custody of the museum's curator, and can be seen on request. The museum is open every day except Monday, from 10 am to 5 pm.

The Kala Vithika is another treasure house of the arts. It remains closed on Sunday and public holidays. The Municipal Corporation Museum, which is open all days except Mondays, has a very fine natural history section. The old ancestral house of the legendary Ustad Hafiz Ali Khan has recently been converted into 'Sarod Ghar' - Museum of Music by the Ustad Hafiz Ali Khan Memorial Trust under the patronage and guidance of his great son and sarod maestro Ustad Amzad Ali Khan. The museum has been rebuilt keeping in mind the old traditional architecture of Gwalior and houses in it ancient instruments of the great Indian Masters of yesteryears.

One of the nine jewels in the court of Mughal emperor Akbar, Tansen (1500 – 1586), was one of the greatest Indian musicians. For music lovers and those fascinated by history, the tomb remains a place of avid interest. The vocalist, it is said, could create magic with his voice, such that the clouds were tempted to rain down and even the animals were enchanted. Tansen learned Hindustani classical music from Mohammad Ghaus and developed the Gwalior Gharana style of music. He was also a proponent of Dhrupad style of music, which does not seek to entertain but induce the listener with peace and a mood of contemplation. In November every year, the world-famous Tansen Music Festival is organized at the tomb.

• Jaivilas Palace (2 Km) : Jai Vilas is an Italianate structure which combines the Tuscan and Corinthian architectural modes. The imposing Darbar Hall has two central chandeliers weighing a couple of tonnes, and hung only after ten elephants had tested the strength of the roof. Ceilings picked out in gilt, heavy draperies and tapestries , fine Persian carpets and antique furniture from France and Italy are the features of these spacious rooms. Eye catching treasures include : a silver train with cut glass wagons which served guests as it chugged around the table on miniature rails; a glass cradle from Italy used for the baby Krishna each Janmashtami, silver dinner services and swords that were once worn by Aurangzeb and Shah Jahan. These are ,besides, personal momentoes of past members of the Scindia family : the jeweled slippers that belonged to Chinkoo Rani , four-poster beds, gifts from practically every country in the world, hunting trophies and portraits. The Scindia Museum offers an unparalleled glimpse into the rich culture and lifestyle of princely India.
• Tansen's Tomb (4 Km) : One of the nine jewels in the court of Mughal emperor Akbar, Tansen (1500 – 1586), was one of the greatest Indian musicians. For music lovers and those fascinated by history, the tomb remains a place of avid interest. The vocalist, it is said, could create magic with his voice, such that the clouds were tempted to rain down and even the animals were enchanted. Tansen learned Hindustani classical music from Mohammad Ghaus and developed the Gwalior Gharana style of music. He was also a proponent of Dhrupad style of music, which does not seek to entertain but induce the listener with peace and a mood of contemplation. In November every year, the world-famous Tansen Music Festival is organized at the tomb.
• Gujari Mahal (4 Km) : The Gujari Mahal Archeological Museum or State Archaeological Museum, sometimes called the "Gwalior Fort Museum", is a state museum in Gwalior, located in the fortress of Gujari Mahal. It displays numerous artifacts of the region, including a fragment of the Garuda capital of the Heliodorus pillar from Vidisha. The palace of Gujari Mahal was built by Tomar Rajput ruler Man Singh Tomar for his wife Mrignayani who belonged to Gujjar tribe. The palace has been converted into an archaeological museum. Rare artifacts at the museum include Hindu and Jain sculptures dated to the 1st and 2nd centuries BCE, miniature statue of Salabhanjika, terracotta items and replicas of frescoes seen in the Bagh Caves.
• The Fort, Sound & Light show (5 Km) : The Sound and Light Show is an additional attraction of Gwalior Fort. The Sound and Light Show forms an integral part of the visit to the Fort. The show is held at the open Amphitheatre at the Man Mandir Palace in the evenings and is a musical narration and storytelling about SAGE Gwalipa and the isolated fort during those times. The story narration is done by Superstar Amitabh Bachhan. A nightly 45-minute sound-and-light show is held in the amphitheatre at Gwalior Fort. The Sound and Light Show is definitely worth watching, for the knowledge of the true happenings of the history. A visit to the fort is incomplete if one plans to visit the fort and not watch the Sound and Light Show that is held here.

Places to Visit in Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh

Here’s our take on what to do while in Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh.

Gwalior Fort

The imposing Gwalior Fort rises dramatically above the city of Gwalior on a central hillock, Gopachal . It’s thought to be one of the most invincible forts in India and thus was rightfully called the Gibraltar of India .

Here’s a detailed post that tries to unearth the historical and architectural secrets behind the imposing Gwalior Fort. Give it a read!

I prefer to read about the history of a place before I make a visit there. I’d recommend you get a bit of insight into the city of Gwalior and its history. It makes your trip more fun and meaningful.

If reading isn’t what you like, go watch the sound and light show at Gwalior Fort the night before you plan to explore the fort. Amitabh Bachchan successfully makes history interesting with his profound voice and captivating way of storytelling.

Most of the famous attractions in Gwalior are in fact inside the Gwalior Fort premises. Inside the fort are numerous palaces, temples, and other historical structures built by different rulers.

The fort has two entrances. Urwahi Gate is accessible by car and Qila Gate or Gwalior Gate is accessible only by a walk along the ramp.

If you enter the fort through Urwahi Gate, don’t miss the sculptures of Jain Tirthankaras carved into the rock face on the way to the fort. The sculptures, set up within caves (Gopachal and Siddhanchal caves) and alcoves in seated (Padmasana) and standing (Kayotsarga) postures depict all 24 Tirthankaras.

Just at the entrance of the Gwalior Fort Complex is an ancient step-well with 80 pillars, Assi Khamba ki Baori.

Man Singh Palace , Raja Man Singh Tomar’s abode during his reign with its blue and yellow tiles stone lattice screens, and lovely mosaic work are the most impressive of all the attractions inside the fort.

The 11th-century Saas-Bahu Temple , dedicated to Vishnu and Shiva is the architectural brilliance.

The 8th-century Teli-Ka-Mandir dedicated to Vishnu is unique because of its architectural style that marries the elements of north India (Nagara) and south India (Dravidian).

Gurudwara Data Bandi Chhor within the fort is a memorial to the sixth guru of the Sikhs, Guru Hargobind Sahib who was imprisoned by Mughal Emperor Jahangir at Gwalior fort.

Chaturbhuj Temple at the Hathi Pol dedicated to Lord Vishnu with the stone inscription comprises the first-ever recorded description of zero in the 7th century and thus is called the Temple of Zero .

Gujari Mahal, a separate palace built for Raja Man Singh’s love and 9th wife, Mriganayani is a bit away from the fort near the Qila Gate. It has been converted into an Archeological Museum that houses rare sculptures, coins, weapons, pottery, and so much more.

We are sure you’d want to know more about the Gujari Mahal in Gwalior. Here’s our take on the magnificent palace in Gwalior Fort.

Karan Mahal, Vikram Mahal, Jahangir Mahal, Shahjahan Mahal, Chhatri of Bhim Singh Rana , and Suraj Kund are the other attractions inside the fort that are worth visiting.

Built on the lines of the famous Konark’s Sun Temple, Gwalior’s Sun Temple was constructed quite recently (1988) by the prominent industrialist G.D. Birla.

As the name says it all, the temple is dedicated to the Sun God and attracts devotees from all over the country.

The temple boasts exquisite red sandstone exteriors with well-carved sculptures of various Hindi Gods and milky white marble interiors with Sun God’s idol and green and peaceful surroundings.

Read our detailed post about Sun Temple in Gwalior

Sarod Ghar aka Kala Vithika , a museum housed in the ancestral home of a sarod maestro, Amjad Ali Khan exhibits the ancient musical instruments that belong to geniuses of Hindustani classical music and old books, documents, and portraits.

Tombs of Muhammad Ghaus and Tansen

The mausoleum of Muhammad Ghaus , a 16th-century Sufi saint and mentor of a celebrated singer, and composer of his times and one of the Navratnas (nine jewels) in Akbar’s court, Tansen is situated in Hazira aka Old Town.

In the same garden complex, right next to the tomb is a Samadhi of Tansen (Tansen Memorial). Come December, the complex becomes the site for the famed musical event, Tansen Samaroh or Tansen Sangeet Samaroh that attracts music lovers from all across the country.

A tamarind tree near Tansen’s grave is a special one. A saint sitting near the tree told us that if you eat a leaf or two from the tree, your voice becomes as melodious as Tansen’s. That’s another thing you should definitely do while you’re here because you never know 🙂

Samadhi Rani Laxmi Bai

Located in the Phool Bagh complex, the Samadhi of Rani Laxmi Bai is a tribute to the great woman warrior of Jhansi, Rani Laxmi Bai famously known as Jhansi ki Rani who bravely fought with the British in 1857.

Looking at the tall statue of Jhansi ki Rani filled me with pride and I saluted the undaunting spirit and sacrifice of the great queen warrior.

About 23 km from Gwalior, Tighra Dam or Tig Dam on the Sank River is a nice recreation or picnic spot. There are many activities on and off the water like boating, jalpari cruises, river rafting, parasailing, and rock climbing for adventure lovers.

Or you can just sit and relax while appreciating the serenity and beauty of the region.

Jai Vilas Palace makes it to the list of things to do in Gwalior, mostly. But I didn’t find it worthy enough for the amount of time and entrance price it demands.

Read my Jai Vilas Palace Experience

With more time in Gwalior, you can add Chhatris of the Scindia dynasty, Gwalior Zoo, Padavali, and Bateshwar to your Gwalior itinerary.

Gwalior exports Chanderi and Maheshwari silk fabric all across the world.

There are also a variety of handicrafts you can shop for like Dhokra or metalcraft, woodcraft, and leatherware.

Patankar Bazaar, Sarafa Bazaar, Maharaj Bada, and Topi Bazaar are the best markets for shopping in Gwalior.

Mrignayanee Emporium , a state government-run emporium at Sarafa Bazaar is a reliable shop as the price and purity of the product are guaranteed.

Summers are harsh here. The exploration becomes almost impossible with day temperatures soaring as high as 45 degrees Celsius.
