The Lions of Mehrangad
Thursday, April 02, 2009It is appropriate, that the 1st mention the Mehrangad fort gets on this blog, begins with its many Royal Lions, the king of beasts. Because Mehrangad is a fort/palace complex the likes of which are rare in this world. Its labyrinths speak of a history so rich and filled with valor and stories of the past that it will remain etched in my memory as the most regal face of Rajasthan, i have seen so far. Here is giving you a peek into the treasures and artistry that this palace holds within its walls. Silver Palanquins on which the King and Queen rode to meet the masses, embellished with intricate carvings of the Lion.
