Royal Palaces of India

India is an amalgamation of many Princely states which merged with the Indian Union at the time of Independence. Hence, India is blessed with a myriad of small and large Palaces which belonged to the erstwhile Kings & Princes of India. Palaces in India have their own unique character and mirror the character of the rulers who built them.
