    The 1938 royal visit from the Maharaja of Baroda is often overlooked. During that stay the palace hosted a cultural exchange where Gujarati folk music was paired with European classical pieces. A guided walk usually stops at the pavilion that was built for that event, explaining how the music program influenced later interior décor. If you’re near Rajkot, the Lemon Tree Hotel Rajkot can arrange a tour that covers that pavilion and its garden layout.
