About Mandu: Emperor Jehangir who journeyed all the way from Delhi to spend time here wrote, "I know of no place so pleasant in climate & so pretty in scenery as Mandu during the rains". A fine example of Indo-Islamic architecture, Mandu is a romance in stone echoing joyous life & the love tales of poet-prince Baz Bahadur for the beautiful Rani Roopmati. The balladeers of Malwa continue to sing of the royal romance. Mandu was originally the fort capital of the Parmar rulers of Malwa.
