    The palace’s 1947 debriefing hall is often omitted from standard tours but houses a rare plaque commemorating the first Indian delegation to visit after independence. It also displays a miniature model of the original garden layout, showing how the European pergolas were later blended with Gujarati lotus motifs. If you’re staying at Lemon Tree Hotel Rajkot, ask the concierge for a walk that includes this debriefing hall. TravelIndiaDeals may earn a commission if you book through this link.
