Datia
lies on the track from Gwalior to Jhansi. In fact it is closer to
Jhansi, which is in Uttar Pradesh, than to Gwalior. 26km to the
north of Jhansi is the small palace town founded by the Bundela
chief Raj Bir Singh Deo.
Bir Singh supported Prince Salim (later Emperor Jahangir) when he
rebelled against his father, the Mughal Emperor Akbar (see Orchha
for details). The palaces at Datia and Orchha are the best surviving
examples of a style of architecture that arose in the late 16thand
early 17thcenturies
in the Bundelkhand area under the reign of the Bundela Rajputs.
