This is very beautiful place in kolhapur, known by name new palace, king shahu Maharaj built this palace. There is museum in this palace.in which we can see life of that time.

Beutiful old monument of Chatrapati Sahu Maharaja. Nice to spend 1hr to 2hr.

The best in condition place you can visit in Maharashtra. Totally worth to visit the place who are interested to see the life of royal family. Many stuff animals are with great condition.Few dumb people still write on the wall which is definitely annoying. Cost of 40 rupee is definitely value to your bucks.Please visit the adjacent Cafe which is having delicious food at the right price.

Great Place To Visit .Historical Palace.

Beautiful palace in Kolhapur. Exterior design is quite unique and different from regular palaces. Museum inside is also unique but lots of restrictions on the way to walk and behave.Large parking outside. The grounds around the palace is also decently maintained. The entrance was not marked well on Maps and we went in lanes and had almost given up visiting.

The ground floor of the New Palace accommodates the Shahaji Chhatrapati Museum. It is dedicated to a fine collection of possessions of Chhatrapatis of Kolhapur like costumes, weapons, games, jewellery, embroidery and paraphernalia such as silver elephant saddles.

The exterior is well maintained but internally its a heart breaking scene...Everything on display there are not taken care of, not restored, full of dust...

Best Historical monument 👌👌👌

Good place,entry fees of rs 40 per adult and rs 20 for childrenTry and go at 4 pm because it closes at 6 pm

Well maintained heritage place. Must see for kids. Preserved historical monument s in decent way. Felt very proud to see our ancestors kingdom.

I had only heard about this new palace. Today I made a point to visit it. There is a museum of all the things that Chatrapatti Shahu Maharaj possessed. To visit the New Palace you have to buy tickets (Adults ₹40/-, Children ₹20/- & Foreigners ₹80/-)You are welcomed by a nice gate, 600 mtr from the gate is the New Palace. On your left hand side you will find ample parking. And on the right you are surprised by a water body (lake) where you will find various birds like swans, ducks etc. enjoying their time. Just besides that and if you are lucky you will be able to see animals like spotted dear, black buck, peacock etc.On the square, at the entrance of the Palace stands the burst statue of Chatrapatti Shahu Maharaj.The New Palace structure takes all your attention once you are inside the gate.NOTE:# No photography and videography is allowed# You phones has to be SWITCHED OFF# The toilet block is super clean

New Palace that is built on the Bhavani Mandap Kasaba Bawada Road. If you are a history buff then this is one of the best tourist places in Kolhapur as it showcases the artefacts and belongings of Maharaja and his family.The lower floor is converted into a museum where all the possessions are kept and the rest of the parts are closed for the visitors. The architectural style of the Palace is quite intriguing and is built in black polished stone.

Amazing palace. If you are a history lover you should definitely visit this palace. Great collection of the Maharajs weapons and other things. When I was in the main hall, could feel the vibes of the Maharajs sabha(meetings) they show in movies. Was a great experience. The surrounding too is beautiful and good place to click photos.

Great historical place 🙏 grand salute

Very beautiful palace and rich history...

Good historical place in kolhapur. Must visit

Good place to visit if you are interested in history of Kolhapur and matathas. Palace also boasts a collection of different types of blades, firearms, etc. An enclosure in the premises is sanctuary to animals like Spotted deer, hare, emu, peacock, etc. Worth a visit with ₹40 entry fee per adult. Please note photography inside the palace is strictly prohibited.

Beautiful palace, however the security is bad and trashy! No respect for the tourists. This security was screaming at me and when I came back at him and asked him why he had no mask on, he said theres no rule as such! If this is how tourists will be treated, itll soon be filled with bad reviews and close down.

#Hestoric place- animals, different varity of guns , different types of sword______❤️🔥🤙🏻#(KOLHAPUR)
