4. Chhatri:-
One of the most famous monuments, it is the perfect blend of Mughal and Hindu culture and architecture.
Set in a formal Mughal garden, the construction was carried and completed under the guidance of Scindia rulers. What is fascinating about this fusion is the fact that the Mughal garden in the backyard has tombs of deceased Scindia rulers. Every evening, Classic music presentations are made at the monument as a part of the prayer session.
