When you are planning to travel in Tirpura, never miss to include
Kunjaban Palace in your itinerary. A historic palace that Maharaja Birendra
Kishore Manikya Bahadur built for his private retreat on a picturesque hillock
has royal elegance written all over its bricks and lawns. The palace, now known
as the Raj Bhavan, officially hosts the Governor of Tripura.

It brings more significance to the history lovers as the
famous poet Rabindra Nath Tagore stayed there in his seventh and the last visit
to the state in 1926. The Poet stayed there in the eastern apartment of this
palace, which stood mute witness to many of the great poet’s memorable creations
including a number of popular songs.
There are well maintained gardens and sprawling lawns inside
the palace which is the official residence of the Governor of Tripura now. The
southern part of the garden has been thrown open for the public and has been
named as ‘Rabindra Kanan’ to commemorate the famous bard of India.
The place is easily accessible and you can get all useful
guidance from the hotel you stay in Agartala.
