Gajlaxmi palace

Gajlaxmi palace, Royal palace in Dhenkanal, India

Gajlaxmi Palace sits on a sloping hillside and blends ornate architecture with expansive gardens that surround the main structure. The building displays intricate decorative details and occupies a large footprint across the landscape.

The palace was built in the 1930s by Rajkumar Sreshesh Pratap Singh Deo as the residence of the Bhoi dynasty rulers. It was constructed during the era when the region functioned as an independent princely state.

The palace displays rooms filled with photographs and personal objects that show how the royal family lived across different generations. Walking through, you notice how their daily life and traditions are preserved in these spaces.

The property now functions as a heritage homestay where visitors can book rooms and stay overnight while experiencing the historical setting. Modern amenities are provided throughout, and the natural surroundings offer a quiet escape from busy areas.

The grounds border natural forests where wild elephants and forest animals roam regularly through the landscape. Visitors may catch sight of this local wildlife from the property, offering glimpses into the region's natural world.
