Discover Chandni Jaltungi
Here, they tell a 300 year old story of how a brave King built the most beautiful piece of Rajasthan in a quaint village of Bengal for his Queen who hailed from the Rajputana. She was so beautiful that she could hold the radiance of moon within her palms when she took a handful of water from this Jheel on a full-moonday – thus they called this place Chandni.

Maharaja Kirti Chand
History of Chandni Jaltungi
This beautiful structure was built by Maharaja Kirti Chand of Bardhaman who ruled from 1702 AD to 1740 AD. The Maharaja commissioned this beautiful structure to represent the Royal Chatris built within the various Jheels of Rajasthan, Sindh and Punjab. Maharaja Kirti Chand was married to a Noble Lady Rajrajeshwari hailing from the noteworthy business family of Tandons from Punjab. In order to make his wife “feel at home” and to somewhat please his in-laws, this beautiful waterbody along with a grand palace was built by the Maharaja here. Although the palace does not exist anymore, this beautiful Jheel still stands to tell the stories of the forgotten era. Some of the most famous musicians have graced this beautiful garden and the banks of this Jheel during the Maharaja’s times.
