Jhira Bagh Palace: A Royal Retreat in Dhar

When I first drove into Jhira Bagh Palace, a therapeutic resort nestled within acres of beautiful vegetation, I was immediately wrapped in joy. This peaceful heritage retreat is ideal for getting away from the rush and bustle of city life. Jhira Bagh Palace, near Indore, is a distant royal estate brimming with history and meadows home to over 300 majestic peacocks. Overall, the hospitality will exceed your expectations while you relax in the great outdoors and eat delicious farm-grown meals.

Having said that, I lucked onto this resort in Dhar when I was planning a vacation to Maheshwar and Mandav. Between these two cities lies a renovated 18th-century palace that brings monarchy to life in a variety of ways. Jhira Bagh Palace, the whitewashed home of Anand Rao Puar, the 19th-century Maharaja of Dhar, is a tale of heritage loomed in imperial legacy.

As a result, you will be treated like a star from the time you arrive. The ancient Carriage (Baggi) stationed at the entryway gives you a sense of the richness of Jhira Bagh’s past. Following that, the property manager will provide a short tour of the royal residence.

The Victorian Suite, with its huge colonial-era washrooms, fireplace, and switchboards, was particularly appealing to me. You might be wondering how a switchboard could be so unique. Let me tell you that the switchboards in the Victorian Suite were chosen by the King on his 19th-century foreign trip. Fortunately, the property still retains them in the same condition as when they were initially placed.

Victorian Era Switch

There are various aspects in the Victorian Suite that evoke a sense of majesty and grandeur. Poster beds that have been well-maintained, handmade antique furniture, languid silk couches, and ethereal art that exudes integrity are among them. You also have access to a private alfresco seating area where you can wake up to a mystical sunrise or relax while watching the epiphanous sunsets.

In addition, the washroom in this suite is the size of a room in a Mumbai flat. As a result, it’s not unexpected that the entire appearance and feel of this Victorian suite impresses you. The Victorian Suite is especially noteworthy since it was formerly home to the previous King and Queen. It was the royal bedroom. It overlooks the surrounding breathtaking countryside, which is dotted with palms, as well as the local agricultural yore. The garden you see is also the source of your nourishment.

Every day, the chefs at Jhira Bagh Palace select fresh vegetables from these vast gardens to cook a personalised organic lunch/dinner for you. The meal I ate here was fresh and delectable. Throughout the process, the property manager informed me that the ingredients were picked the same morning. I could see he was excited, and I’m sure these small gestures make a big impact. These are also the characteristics that differentiate a royal property from a typical commercial hotel.

You must explore the Jhira Bagh Palace’ interior courtyard to appreciate its eternal splendour. I was told that hundreds of years ago, the remodelled interiors appeared completely different. The ancient images of the previous palace, which are now hung on the walls, have become a work of art. The guests may enjoy the small replica of the palace as an observation platform. It gives you a full 360-degree perspective of the royal palace. Similarly, the vast passageways have a trail of prehistoric antiquities that will enchant you with their historical echoes.

Each wall reverberates with memories of bygone eras like a never-dimming light. Aside from that, you’ll discover minimalist elegance and outrageously lavish amenities throughout the mansion. “They are a rendezvous of old world elegance,” the property boasts, “where the lighting uplifts the atmosphere as the sun rises and a strong aura takes over as twilight falls, ushering in enchanting, mysterious evenings.”

Jhira Bagh Patio

A milking session at the dairy, a tractor ride, and table tennis are among the other activities available on the property. In the backyard, they also have a ground-level pool. Don’t be shocked if peacocks visit you when you’re swimming-away your worries.

Jhira Bagh Palace evokes a mythical history that plays centre stage to a bygone period, whether it’s the charm of the themed suite or the tradition of greatest care passed down through generations. Staying at Jhira Bagh Palace seemed like a voyage of rediscovery and a trip back in time.

Jhira Bagh Palace Timeless

Jhira Bagh Palace served as a home for senior British officials, Viceroys, and Governor Generals of India, and was used for both official and leisure trips.
