Kunjaban Palace

Manikya (1909-1923) selected this beautiful place for building a suburban palace for retreat and constructed a palace in 1917 which was named as ‘Pushbanta Palace’.

The Maharaja himself being gifted artist is said to have drawn the plan of the palace and its adjoining garden. Though not far away yet being a palace came to be regarded as ideal for relaxation and pleasure strolls in the past for its green beauty, green gardens, orchard and a small zoo.

Poet Rabindranath Tagore stayed in the eastern apartment of this palace during his 7th and last visit to the state in 1926. This palace was the mute witness to many of the great poet's creations including a number of popular songs. There are well laid gardens and lawns inside the palace which is the official residence of the Governor of Tripura now. The southern side of the garden has been made open for the public and has been named as ‘Rabindra Kanan’.

Around varandh attached to this eastern part, named as Gol Varandah was the most favourite place for its distant view of Baramura Hills on the eastern horizon. This varandah had been the mute witness of many a dear moment when the poet composed a number of popular songs which were in corporated in Vaikali series, or remained obsorted in silence. This palace has been taken over by the Government of Tripura and is being used as the official residence of the governor-Raj Bhavan.
