Jhansi fort
The Jhansi fort was built by King Bir Singh Judeo of Orchha in the 17th century on the top of a hill, as an army stronghold. The Jhansi Fort offers excellent views from its ramparts. The British ceded the fort to Maharaja Scindia in 1858 but later exchanged it for Gwalior in 1866. The fort has been a witness to the fiery battle led by Queen Laxmi Bai. The fort consists of a tier of ramparts which varies in height from 5.5 m to 9 m. They are built of solid masonry and have ten gates: Khanderao, Datia, Unao, Orchha, Baragaon, Lakshmi, Sagar, Sainyar, Bhander and Jhirna. The breach made by the British under Sir Huge Rose is between the Sainyar and Jhirna gates. There is a temple inside the fort which is attended by a priest. There are beautiful temples of Lord Shiva and Ganesha inside the fort. The Karak Biji and Bhawani Shankar cannons of the queen are also kept here.

Rani Mahal 
The palace of Queen Laxmi Bai or Rani Mahal is a fine piece of traditional architecture, which has now been converted into a museum. It houses a collection of archaeological remains of the period between the 9th and the 12th century AD and the sculptures excavated by the Archaeological Survey of India. On the first floor of the palace, decorative murals grace the ceiling as they used to do it when they resided here after the British annexed her kingdom.

Chhatri of Gangadhar Rao
The chhatri or cenotaph of Gangadhar Rao, the Rani Laxmi Bai's husband stands in a walled enclosure. This cenotaph is centred around a pavilion and devoid of frescoes. It has a quiet and nostalgic feet about it. A door leads to a reservoir or tank where local men bathe.

Jhansi Museum
Weapons, statues, dresses and photographs that represent the Chandela dynasty and a picture galley, are the main features of the Government museum. The Museum's folk art gallery is fascinating with its exhibits of finger painting from the walls of village huts.

Deogarh
Deogarh is situated about 123 kms. from Jhansi. Deogarh is situtated on the right bank of the Betwa river, at the western end of the Lalitpur range of hills. It is of great antiquarian, epigraphical and archaeological importance. It remained in glory during the region of the Guptas, the Gondas, Gurjara-Pratiharas, the Muslim rulers of Delhi, the Marathas and the British. The architecture and sculptures of these temples display a high level of craftsmanship. The great Gupta dynasty of the 4th and 5th century AD, fortified Deogarh and built the hand crafted Dashavatar Temple. This fine temple is dedicated to Lord Vishnu, and the earliest known Panchayatan temple in North India. The Guptas have left an indelible stamp on the sculptural art and architecture of India and this temple is among their best. 

The carvings in the temple almost seem as if they had been moulded, rather than been fashioned painstakingly with a hammer and chisel. Lord Vishnu reclines on an elbow and the cushions below him have been indented to take the varied pressures of his hips, back, shoulders. All around the temple such minute details have been depicted on the hard stone with the most exquisite fidelity. The Deogarh's most famous attraction is the walled complex of temples belonging to the gentle and non-violent Jain community. The site was a Jain centre from the 8th to the 17th century. There are 31 Jain temples, all situated inside the Fort of Karnali, on the hill overlooking the river Betwa. This complex has the world's largest collection of the Jain sculptures belonging from the 9th to 12th centuries. Most of them have been imbedded in the walls of the complex which not only protects them but also makes them accessible to visitors. There are also beautiful images installed in the various temples of the complex. Gorakhgiri is the hill where Guru Gorakhnath once resided with his disciples. The spot is ideal for rock-climbing and picnics.
