Pillars in Orchha's Sheesh Mahal

Orchha is a gem of a place for anyone who loves historical buildings, especially if you prefer them looking authentic, pre-restoration. Its Sheesh Mahal is a large palace to the north of the town that has commanding views over the lush, green surrounding countryside. The upper domes of the palace are home to vultures that fly majestically through the air before landing on the upper most domes to claim their throne.

Here’s some (untouched) photos for you to enjoy:
