Pravin Rai Mahal, Palace and State Protected Monument in Orchha, Tikamgarh district, India.

The three-story palace features a central hall with multiple paintings and smaller chambers equipped with numerous windows for natural illumination.

Prince Indrajit Singh constructed this palace in 1618 for Pravin Rai, a musician and poet known as the Nightingale of Orchha.

The second floor displays multiple paintings depicting various moods of Pravin Rai, reflecting the artistic traditions of the Bundela Rajput period.

The palace contains a semi-subterranean summer room that maintains temperatures significantly lower than the outside through natural ventilation methods.

The structure served as Tope Khana, a strategic lookout post for Orchha Fort, combining defensive functions with its residential purpose.
