R A I P U R

Once upon a time the capital city of powerful kingdom, Raipur lost its raison dêtre when its reigning dynasty lost their domain  to stronger forces. Like the phoenix, Raipur has risen from the ashes of obscurity and taken front place as the capital city of the new born state of Chattisgarh.

Few people travel to Raipur for leisure or pleasure  - most visitors are business travellers in search of government contracts and lucrative deals. Those who do stray from their set itineraries discover ruins that tell tales of the city's once glorious past, fortifications that stood guard over the city, its residents and the temples and lakes that were integral to the life of the people.
