Tripura’s regal past comes alive through the stunning architecture and grandeur of Neermahal and Ujjayanta Palace—two gems that beautifully reflect the state’s royal legacy.

Floating in the middle of Rudrasagar Lake, Neermahal (meaning "Water Palace") is the only lake palace in Eastern India. Built in 1930 by Maharaja Bir Bikram Kishore Manikya, this architectural marvel blends Hindu and Mughal styles. A boat ride to the palace during sunset offers a magical view, making it one of the most romantic heritage experiences in the Northeast.

In the heart of Agartala lies Ujjayanta Palace, an opulent white-domed structure that once served as the royal residence. Today, it houses a state museum showcasing Tripura’s diverse tribal cultures, traditions, and ancient relics. With its well-maintained gardens, fountains, and grand halls, the palace stands as a testament to the Manikya dynasty’s power and vision.

Together, these palaces offer a journey into Tripura’s aristocratic past and cultural depth—an enriching experience for history buffs, architecture lovers, and curious travelers alike.
