    The palace also hosted a 1932 treaty signing between the local ruler and the British Resident, a key moment that solidified its political importance. Architecturally, note the stone carved friezes on the outer walls that depict scenes from Gujarati folklore, a rare blend of narrative art and structural design. If you’re staying near Rajkot, the Lemon Tree Hotel Rajkot is close enough to walk to the palace and ask for a guided walk that covers the treaty hall.
