Tour Orchha - a medieval city in Madhya Pradesh that owes its fame to marvelously chiseled Jain temples that were built during the reign of rulers from the Bundela dynasty.
Located on the Jhansi - Khajuraho Road, Orchha is an important Central India cultural hub that was the birthplace of the Bundela School of Painting. The sculptural variety on the walls of medieval Orchha temples has been an inspiration for artists for ages.
History
The city of Orchha came into existence sometime in the early 16th century when Maharaja Rudra Pratap, a Bundela ruler decided to fortify this region.
The history of Orchha is a history of brave soldiers and rulers who've protected their territory from invasions and outside political domination for several centuries. In fact Orchha was among the few regions in Central India that remained unconquered by the Marathas.
