| The beauty of Mandu can be succinctly explicated in the following lines by Jehangir I know of no other place that is as pleasant in climate and with such attractive scenery as Mandu in the rainy season. Mandu is a celebration of life and love, a tribute to the tender love of the poet - prince Baz Bahadur for his consort, Rani Roopmati. The balladeers of Malwa still sing of their love, and perched atop a hill, Roopmati s pavilion still gazes down fondly upon Baz Bahadur s palace, an outstanding example of Afghan architecture. The other structures of interest are the massive Jami Masjid and Hoshang Shah s Tomb, which served as models for the masterbuilders of the Taj Mahal, centuries later. The magic of Mandu lives on in its palaces, mosques, and in its ballads. Rainy Season is the best to reach this small ancient town of Madhya Pradesh, 100 Km away from Indore. Anybody know the full details of this Place? Posted On : 7/13/2009 9:09:46 PM
