Jagatjit Palace is a nice place to visit for a flash back into history. Even though marks of wear and tear is clearly visible in the structure but it never fails in giving goosebumps to history geeks.

Jagatjit Palace was built by Maharaja Jagatjit Singh, the last ruler of Kapurthala. He was a great enthusiast of French architect which is reflected from the palaces and various monuments of his time. Kapurthala is known as 'Paris of Punjab'. Jagatjit Palace, the French and the Indo-Saracenic architecture has made this town a must visit for all the tourists to Punjab. The interiors of Jagatjit Palace incorporate a fascinating amalgamation of styles. Many of the roofs of the palace were made in the beaux-art style of the 19th century; the most striking is the Mansard roof, with a double slope and small, oval windows that recall those at the Louvre.

The Sainik School, formerly known as Jagatjit Palace, is housed in what was formerly the palace of the Maharajah of Kapurthala state, Maharaja Jagatjit Singh. The palace building is spread over a total area of 200 acres (0.81 km2). It was designed by a French architect M. Marcel and built by a local builder Allah Ditta. It was built in renaissance style with the sunken park in the front (Known as Baija). Its Darbar Hall (Diwan-E-Khas) is one of the finest in India, and the Plaster of Parir figures and painted ceilings represent the finest features of French and Italian art and architecture. The construction of this palace was commenced in 1900 and completed in 1908. (Source-wikipedia)
