Kanker Palace was built in the first quarter of the last century, and rebuilt and set in gardens in 1937. It was lived in by British agents during the Raj, and is now the residence of the Royal family. With its Colonial style architecture, the Palace is stately, elegant, and has an old world charm and ambience. Five suites in the right wing of the Palace have been converted to host guests. These have modern facilities are furnished with original palace furniture. Ever attempt has been made to retain the flavour of the region. You can visit the tribal villages, forests, or take a boating safari with angling in the most secluded part of rivers and back waters. As far as possible this opens a sensitive window into the life of the region and its people, without disturbing it.
