"Discover the rich history and cultural heritage of Kolhapur, a city steeped in royal legacy. Home to Shahu, the esteemed Maharaja of Kolhapur, this Indian ruler left an indelible mark on the region. From his patronage of wrestling students to his valiant efforts during The War in Kolapore, Shahu's influence resonates throughout the city. One notable event that shaped Kolhapur's history was Lieutenant William Alexander Kerr's successful attack on rebels at Kolhapur. This pivotal moment ensured peace and stability for its inhabitants. The grandeur extended beyond its political landscape. The Empire Coronation Banquet at the Guildhall stands as a testament to its opulence and splendor. Illustrated in vivid detail from The Graphic, this banquet showcased the city's prominence on a global stage. Education also thrived within these historic walls with Rajah Ram High School serving as an emblematic institution for knowledge seekers. Its engraved facade symbolizes enlightenment and progress nurtured within its hallowed halls. Monuments dedicated to the Rajah of Kolapore stand tall near Florence, Italy, honoring his contributions both locally and internationally. These engravings capture their majestic presence against picturesque landscapes. Nature lovers will find solace by visiting iconic spots like Bathing Ghat where black-and-white photographs immortalize serene moments along riverbanks. Meanwhile, vibrant lithographs depict thrilling encounters with wildlife such as a big snake encountered during floods near Kolhapur—a testament to nature's raw power. As you enter through Gateway leading into Palace Square, be prepared to be transported back in time amidst architectural marvels that showcase regal aesthetics fused with local craftsmanship. For breathtaking vistas that transcend time itself, venture towards Dajipur where Sahyadri mountains paint an awe-inspiring backdrop against which memories are made. "
