What travelers say:

Raja Mahal of the magnificent Royal Palace of Ocha is a very important building of Ocha. The status is similar to that of Jahangir Palace. It is not as exquisite as it is, but there are still different highlights in style. The two palaces are very close and can be visited and compared together. [Highlights] Built during the reign of Madhukar Shah from 1554 to 1591, abandoned in 1783 and with a long history; the interior is royal, carved, embellished, murals with different themes, mythical animals and characters, very exquisite; its quadrangle courtyard is very similar to the courtyard of Jahangir Palace, as magnificent and magnificent; The top of the palace has many raised balconies, with domed pavilions and towers, delicate and exquisite; unlike the Jahangir palace, there are many hollow windows here, the shape of the windows is also very elegant, in the light and shadow very ornamental; The highest floor can overlook the entire town of Ocha, which has a Burmese Bagan feeling. [Note] There are many passages in the palace, and there are many holes in the wall, which can take pictures of a dreamy and beautiful portrait; The view of the palace's upper floors is much better than that of Jahangir Palace, and you can take very shocking photos at the commanding height; it is best to come in the morning or after 4 pm when the door is opened, when the light is softer, and there is a certain angle, which is very good. [Practical Raiders Information] Transportation: After buying a train ticket to Zhanxi Railway Station, I took a sudden car. The journey takes 30 minutes. After reaching the town, the castle can be reached on foot. This palace needs to walk through a bridge, about 10 minutes away from the center of the town; Tickets: Indians only need to pay 3 yuan, and foreigners need to pay 30 yuan for tickets, and there is an additional charge for taking pictures. Tickets can only be played for one day. All the castles in Ocha can be entered. If you want to enter the next day, give a tip to the doorman. No need to buy tickets again; Time reference: 1-2 Hourly Open Time: 9:00 - 18:00
