Places to visit

  • Pinjore Gardens : Both the gorgeous gardens and the Hindustan Machine Tools (HMT) factory are regarded as Asia's best examples of Mughal gardens from the 17th century. The Sheesh Mahal, Rang Mahal, and Jal Mahal, all in the Rajasthani Mughal style and made up of a number of waterfalls and fountains, may be found amid the tiered gardens. Pinjore Gardens are surrounded by unusual trees and provide for a beautiful scene at dusk. After Maharaja Yadavindra Singh, the final king of Patiala, they were christened Yadavindra Gardens after being constructed in the 17th century. Fidahi Khan, an architect who served as Aurangzeb's lieutenant and cousin, is supposed to have designed them.

  • Sheesh Mahal & Rang Mahal : A spellbinding site to behold is the royal house located on the grounds of the Mughal Gardens. During their visits to the garden, the women would stay there. The Sheesh Mahal offers a panoramic view of the garden that extends from the entrances to the boundary wall. The Rang Mahal, the Maharaja of Patiala's house, is located on the following level. The orchard and garden that encircle the hill can be seen from here as well. The moonlight only makes everything more stunning.

  • Bhima Devi Temple: Erotic statues can be found throughout the Bhima Devi shrine. The temple, which can be seen next to the Pinjore Gardens, was constructed between the eighth and eleventh centuries AD using the remains of an earlier temple. It has been designated as a protected monument under the Punjab Ancient and Historical Monuments and Archaeological Sites and Remains Act, 1964. With idols of Apsaras, Gandharvas, gods and goddesses, animals, and sensual motifs from the modern day, the temple's ruins have been artistically organized in the style of an open-air museum. The idol of Lord Shiva is the building's most appealing feature.
