Datia, a small rural town in the state of Madhya Pradesh, was formerly the seat of the eponymous princely state in the British Raj. Datia is situated near Gwalior and on the border with Uttar Pradesh. The old town is surrounded by a stone wall, enclosing handsome palaces like the 17th century palace of Bir Singh Deo which is one of the finest examples of Hindu domestic architecture available in north India.
