The road through the Kati Ghati gate leads up to the Ramnagar Palace which had also a museum but now no musume excist here . Termed as palace, the structure is in fact a hunting lodge and retreat which was built by Maharaja Durjan Singh Bundela in AD 1698.
The stone blocks used in its construction are not consistent in size, shape or decorative carving. This clearly indicates that these blocks were sourced from older monuments and ruined structures in the vicinity
Must know – No food , fast food , no snacks available here , so must have some in your bag with water bottle.
Must be wear proper shoes/ foot wear because too much stairs towards Temple . Must have towel, hat/cap , sunglasses .
First floor is also damage so do not go to first floor , the warning is mentioned in the building
Ticket – Free for all
Parking – free for all
Surrounded by lush greenery on one side and the Mehjatiya Pool on the other, the palace serves as a popular picnic spot. The Governor Bahjat Khan had ordered the creation this artificial lake and it was initially named Bahjat Khan Pond but the name was later distorted to Mehjatiya. This lake is of historical importance as well. It was here that Babur had camped the night before he mounted the attack on the Chanderi fort, on January 28, 1528.

The road through the Kati Ghati gate leads up to the Ramnagar Palace which is also a museum maintained by the Department of Archaeology, Museums and Archives, Madhya Pradesh. Termed as palace, the structure is in fact a hunting lodge and retreat which was built by Maharaja Durjan Singh Bundela in AD 1698.
It was here that Babur had camped the night before he mounted the attack on the Chanderi fort, on January 28, 1528.
Must visit and experience the beauty of this palace and museum.

A well preserved palace used as a hunting lodge. Great views from the towers. A nice spot to sit and enjoy the breeze from the lake and perhaps have lunch (take your own). Some great photo opportunities as well.

This is a heritage building very well maintained by the ASI. The road from Kati Ghati leads straight to the Ramnagar Palace. There is also a small museum here. There is an artificial lake close to this monument. Hence it serves as an ideal picnic spot. This place was used as a hunting lodge by the kings of Chanderi. It is said that Babar used this place as a base when he attacked Chanderi.
