Resturants Near Laxmi Vilas Palace
Vadodara (Baroda), Gujarat, India
The Laxmi Vilas Palace is an extraordinary testament to the grandeur and opulence of the Gaekwad dynasty, who ruled the princely state of Baroda. Commissioned by Maharaja Sayajirao Gaekwad III in 1890 and completed in 1890, it remains the private residence of the royal family. This architectural ma sterpiece is often cited as the largest private dwelling built to date, reputedly four times the size of Buckingham Palace, spanning an area of nearly 500 acres. The palace was designed by Major Charles Mant in the Indo-Saracenic Revival style, a unique blend of traditional Indian and European architectural elements, featuring ornate domes, minarets, and arches. The sheer scale and intricate detailing of the palace are breathtaking. Its interiors are lavish, adorned with Venetian mosaic floors, Belgian stained-glass windows, and Italian marble. The famous Darbar Hall, used for royal ceremonies and cultural events, is a particular highlight, showcasing exquisite craftsmanship and artistic brilliance. The palace grounds are equally impressive, housing several other notable structures like the Moti Bagh Palace (which now serves as the Maharaja Fateh Singh Museum), a golf course established in the 1930s, and various outhouses. The extensive gardens are meticulously maintained, featuring an Italian-style fountain courtyard and various sculptures of bronze and terracotta. The current royal family continues to reside in a portion of the palace, but a significant section is open to the public, allowing visitors to experience the lavish lifestyle of the erstwhile rulers. A state-of-the-art audio guide provides fascinating insights into the history of the Gaekwad family, the construction of the palace, and the significance of its various halls and artifacts. Visiting Laxmi Vilas Palace is like stepping back in time, offering an unparalleled glimpse into India's princely past and architectural heritage.
