Fort Unchagaon stands majestically in village Unchagaon; just about an hours drive from Garhmukteshwar & merely 110 kms from New Delhi & 180 kms from Agra.
The present Raja Surendra Pal Singh inherited this early 19th century fort at the tender age of ten. The young heir took personal interest in the maintenance and preservation of this ancestral residence. This palace was renovated under his guidance and thus is the evident the influence of the early 20th century blend of Indian and colonial architecture.
Being the private domicile of a prince, the décor is authentically aristocratic.
As the years rolled by, all modern amenities were added to the old palace making it much loved weekend get away for many close friends and relatives of the family.
The imposing white façade of SURYA MAHAL is surrounded by well-manicured, lush verdant lawns. Presently Fort Unchagaon offers 17 Double rooms and Suites and a host of activities & recreational games.
