Photos Of Chhatardi

Bhuj, Gujarat, India
Sub Place Details: The Chhatardi of Bhuj are magnificent royal cenotaphs built in the 18th century by the Jadeja rulers of Kutch. These structures serve as memorials for the deceased kings and queens of the royal family. The word 'Chhatardi' literally translates to 'umbrella', referring to the dome -shaped roofs that characterize these monuments. The most impressive among these is the cenotaph of Rao Lakha, which features a large polygonal structure with intricate carvings on red sandstone. The site is a testament to the architectural brilliance of that era, blending Rajput and Mughal styles. Although the site suffered significant damage during the 2001 earthquake, the ruins still retain a haunting beauty that attracts photographers and history lovers from all over the world. Walking through the complex, one can see detailed carvings of musicians, dancers, and celestial beings on the pillars and ceilings. The site is particularly famous for its peaceful atmosphere, away from the hustle of the city market. Many visitors come here during the golden hour to witness the sunset, as the red sandstone glows brilliantly under the evening light. The site is not just a graveyard but a historical archive that tells the story of the Kutch royalty through its stone inscriptions and motifs. It is one of the most Instagrammable spots in Bhuj due to its ancient and rustic appeal.
