Garh Palace

Bundi is 1000-year-old city and till 14th century it was ruled by Meena rulers. In early 14th century, it came under Rajputs via war, who ruled till 2009 (the last king didn’t have any child, so the current ruler is from the royal family if Alwar) Bundi was and is a flourishing city, and it is because of their Rajput rulers who had a great political sense which let them have friendly ties with Mughals, British and Government of India after 1947 independence. A famous ruler of Bundi, Ratan Singh was a close ally of Mughal emperor Jahangir and as per my guide, India wouldn’t have Taj Mahal if it wasn’t for Bundi empire whose army assisted Jahangir in many battles.
