Imagine a special tour of an old palace to learn about its history!

The palace has a secret underground room and the first indoor swimming pool in the state!
They learned how the palace is linked to the formation of Odisha.
The goal is to remind everyone how important it is to keep these old treasures safe and to organize more of these tours to other places.
