After entering the Elephant Gate, you will enter the palace and be greeted by the two-storey public audience hall, which is already empty, and the side hall on the left side of the south can be turned into the Elephant Pillar Hall and the Cloud Palace with exquisite murals. The palace www.biquge.info three floors above the pen "Fun" Pavilion is partially enclosed, and has not yet been developed for the public to visit.

If you go up the road below the Elephant Pillar Gate and turn left, you will enter a large garden courtyard where you can see many very valuable historical murals in the inner building. I went up the mountain with a stick early in the morning, because I hadn't eaten meat for almost 20 days. This gate was the first gate of the royal palace, the entrance to the castle.

After entering the door is a long ramp on the left turn, be physically prepared. This teammate is holding on to keep up today, and he is caught in the Indian street food, and he has a stomach problem and a little burn. Poor to see. Ticket window. Tickets 100 + 50 photo fee. After buying a ticket, continue up the mountain.

Xueluo is Xueluo and Liu Jingshu's finances. The snow falls hard. Once you've bought your tickets, walk up this long ramp to the top and turn to the Elephant Gate, the entrance to the inner courtyard of the palace. The bungalow on the right side of the ramp is a tourist merchandise store, and most of the gems sold in it are copycats.

The entrance gate to the inner courtyard of the royal palace. It is named after the two stone carved elephants above the doorway. The design of this gate is particularly remarkable because of the two elephants. The gate appears to be made of rock and red sandstone, and would have been made of white marble, as in the case of Mehlangarh Castle in Jodhpur, with intricate reliefs.

This is the difference between strength and financial resources. The two wring-nosed elephants hanging above the city gates are bold and unique in their design, adding a bright colour to the entire castle and are one of the features of Bundy's Palace. The palace is decorated with elephants, illustrating the importance and status of elephants in the royal life hundreds of years ago.

The elephant is a symbol of meekness, faithfulness, strength, triumph. Sharp iron nails installed on the elephant gate to prevent enemy elephants from striking. This design is the "standard" of the ancient castle of Rajasthan. An elephant gate looking back from the inside. The red sandstone reliefs on the door frame are still quite beautiful. After entering the Elephant Gate, you will be directly confronted by this palace courtyard.

The courtyard is not very big, but it still looks a little delicate. This courtyard and the surrounding buildings are the main part of the palace that is open to the public. There are many areas of this royal palace that are closed and not for tourists to visit, it is estimated that because people go to the empty building and fall into disrepair, if you want to open for a visit, you have to invest a lot of manpower, material and financial resources, and Bundy is a small place.

The descendants of the vassal kings did not have the strength of the Jodhpur and Jaipur royal families, so they first developed an area to gather financial resources for a fee. A small view of the palace. Hundreds of years old building, the wall has been eroded by wind and rain, has been mottled, old-fashioned, under the corner of the wall, leaning on a cluster of vigorous red triangular plum, the contrast is strong.

It was once a luxurious palace here, but now it is empty. The exterior walls of the building are very plain, lacking the exquisite white marble reliefs on the facades of the Jodhpur Merangar Palace and the Amber Fort Palace in Jaipur, as well as ornate gemstones, glasses, lenses, and ceramic mosaics, so that it looks like an empty shell that has just been built and has not yet been refined.

The two-story building facing the Elephant Gate was originally a public audience hall for the Tuvassal kings. In the middle of the outer side of the corridor on the second floor, there is a protruding pavilion, in which is placed a white marble throne used by the earth lord in the past. A white marble throne in a pavilion on the second floor. White marble openwork carved throne.

Nowadays, it has lost its use value, and is placed here as a historical relic and artwork for tourists to see. Beautiful once hung bay windows and terraces for whom. It was really nice to stand there and look at the view. A variety of small hat gazebos. It has the triple functions of enjoying the shade, looking at the scenery and building decoration.

I don't know when or where this little hat-like architectural style in India came from. This little hat doesn't look like a child crying with a big mouth open. "Mom, I only scored 59 points in the test, and I'm going to be beaten when I go home." This one looks like a naughty boy with a crooked hat. This top doesn't feel a little top-heavy. This hat pavilion looks like a general wearing a helmet.

Xueluo said little brother, can you sit a little bit outside? The red sandstone walls of this hat house have flowered windows and reliefs. Fading peacock relief. It can be discerned that it is dark blue. The reliefs here are rough but childlike. The architect's craft was taught by a kindergarten teacher, and he made a "rabbit hat".

The marble reliefs on the terrace are still very delicate. Faded carved walls. Elephant relief by the terrace. It's very vivid. Stone carvings of elephants that play a supporting role. Quietly and picturesquely, follow the stairs next to the triangle plum to the second floor, where the main part of the palace is located. The upper part of the building is still closed and not open to the public.

The public audience hall on the second floor is very spacious, with two rows of tall, stout, domineering square columns. Unfortunately, the columns and the surrounding walls are mostly bare, and may have previously been covered with marble reliefs, but the palace was dismantled after it was abandoned. The house on the inside of the hall was empty, dim and dark, and there was nothing to see.

Some of the walls were originally inlaid with colored ceramics, but they were badly damaged. Standing on the platform of the royal palace, looking south at the blue old town of Bundi and the viewing pavilion on the hill, the viewing pavilion where the snow had fallen this morning, now facing each other. Overlooking several palace-like buildings scattered among the blue houses. Boy flying a kite standing on a blue roof.

Indian university students who came to visit the palace warmly waved to Xueluo and Liu Jingshu. Tourists: Cool men, beautiful tourists, curious sparrows, curious pigeons, openwork windows with colored glaze. The main attraction on the second floor of the sun god mural is in the side hall. Exit through this corridor and enter the courtyard where the side hall is located.

There is a small pool in the courtyard of this side hall, which has dried up, like a pond of lotus flowers in the past. One of the highlights of the palace of Bundy: the Elephant Pillar Hall has an open hall on the side of the square pool, and it seems that there is nothing but a few stone pillars when you look through it, but you can see the highlights when you walk in.

Sitting under the base of the wall and basking in the sun is my companion Momo, who is in a state of condition, and has a stick next to him as if he came from the beggar gang, pitiful. Okay, okay, give some medicine "10 rupees, don't be too little"; Just give a little, not too much". Give a little motivation and stand up, one of the classic buildings of Bundy Palace, the Elephant Pillar Hall, approaching this stone pillar hall, you will immediately find it.

On the capitals above the pillars there are numerous black stone elephants. This kind of decoration design on the stone pillars has not been seen in other royal palaces, and it is an unconventional move. Uniqueness is king, and you can't see it anywhere else without here, that's the feature. Look clearly, in different directions on each stigma, there is a black stone elephant as an ornament for the stigma.

There are many beautiful colorful murals painted more than 300 years ago. The biggest highlight of the Bundi Palace, and the most worth seeing, is the colorful frescoes inside.

During this trip to North India, I saw at least 11 royal palaces, among which the murals of the Bundi Palace are the first. Whether it is in quantity, or in content, in terms of imitation or drawing skills. The murals in the Bundi Palace are concentrated in two places, one is in the building in the area in front of you after entering the Elephant Gate.

There is also a place where you can continue up from outside the Elephant Gate to a large garden courtyard on the upper floor. The beams above the columns are painted with colorful murals based on blue. This blue color is derived from the color pigments ground from natural ores. Such as turquoise, lapis lazuli, etc., can obtain natural blue from it.

Because they are made from natural pigments, the colors of these murals remain unfading for a long time and are very vibrant. Blue floral motifs painted with natural pigments on the pillars of the colonnade. There are frescoes on the walls of this inner room. The mural is painted on the wall in a wooden frame that resembles a shrine. Some of the murals are missing, and it is unknown whether they were stolen or fell off naturally.

Colorful murals painted in shrines. This part of the mural is based on sky blue, which is very bright. The content is the court life of the feudal king. Poole Palace, up the stairs from Chata Palace, leads to this small palace built in 1607. From the outside, you can see the mural in blue tones all over the walls.

There is a painted marble elephant stone carving above the door frame, a marble floral relief in the middle, and a polychrome ceramic mosaic below. It is a small palace with very fine workmanship. Marble stone elephant above the door frame. Coloured ceramic mosaics under the door frame. The walls of the interior are filled with very precious colorful murals that are 300 years old.

The content mainly reflects the mighty ceremonial scene when the king of the earth domain went out, and also reflects the life of the royal palace. Picture of the honor guard of the king of the earth domain. The banner mural located in the most important position on the front wall of the room shows the composition and strength of the entire honor guard when the Tuvassal King went out. Detail of the honor guard of the king of the earth domain, the left part of the huge honor guard.

This part is the picture at the end of the line, under the escort of the front and rear horse teams, the king of the earth domain sits on a sedan chair, and the ministers around him hug each other, as well as a band and dancing girls in the procession, showing the noble status and extravagant life of the king of the earth domain. Detail of the ceremonial guard of the king of the earth domain, the picture of the middle of the second part of the team on the left. Officers on horseback, retinue on foot.

The three parts on the left are the details of the honor guard of the Tuvan King, and this is the picture of the front of the honor guard. Some of the samurai rode on camels with spears in front, while some of the literati rode on elephants and followed behind the elephant chariot in the middle. Interestingly, in the middle of this part of the procession appeared five teams marching with rifles, to the surprise of Xueluo.

There was actually a figure of British troops in the ranks. They wore black high hats, red shirts and white trousers, and carried guns on their shoulders, looking majestic and unstoppable. The appearance of the British army showed that the king of Bunditu was already under the protection of the British army at this time. Bundy was a small and vulnerable group, and with the protection of the British army, they could rival Jodhpur and Jaipur.

Udaipur is a more powerful princely state. At the forefront of the four parts of the battle procession on the left of the details of the honor guard of the king of the Tu domain - the horse team and camel team of the king of the Tu domain, some of them carry old-fashioned long poles and guns, and some carry rifles. This shows that the gun was already used by the army of the Tuvassal King at that time.

The decisive role of weapons was illustrated throughout India, including the mighty Rajputs and Sikhs, as well as the Mughal Islamic armies that had unified and ruled the Indian continent for hundreds of years, to the guns of the British colonizers. Knives, forks, swords, and halberds are indeed not on the same level as guns.

A miniature painting of a colorful mural depicting the life of the Tuvan king's palace. The king of the earth was a large man, sitting alone on a throne on a carpet with an awning over his head, surrounded by princes and ministers, and in front of him was a square pool with fish and boats, and on three sides of the pool were surrounded by many ladies of the court.

On the outside, there are many followers. The frescoes in this small palace are also very beautiful, and most of the content describes the life of the royal palace. The stone elephant on the capital, above the wall, is a banner mural, and below the mural there is a shrine, which was originally also a mural, but most of it has been destroyed and disappeared.

One of the most beautiful buildings in the palace of Bundi, built in 1607, the rooms are small and rectangular with an oval dome on top. Here are some of the most elaborate colourful frescoes in the palace of Bundy.

The purpose of this room is probably similar to that of the Palace of Mirrors at Amber Fort in Jaipur, the private reception room of the Tuvassal King. Although this room is not as ornate as the Palace of Mirrors because of its colorful porcelain tiles, the entire wall, from the top dome to the four walls, is painted with very delicate and vivid images of extremely precious old frescoes with a history of more than 300 years.

Although some have faded over time, most of them are still well preserved and colorful. Colorful murals in the Cloud Palace. Colorful murals in the Cloud Palace. Colorful murals in the Cloud Palace.
