Betwa River & Cenotaphs

Betwa River & Cenotaphs

The Betwa River at Orchha is one of Central India's most scenic riverside experiences — a pristine rocky river flowing past 14 royal Bundela cenotaphs (chhatris) and dense forest, with the Orchha Fort skyline as backdrop. Kayaking, riverside walks, and sunrise photography are the top Betwa River activities. The chhatris at river's edge are among the most beautifully situated royal cenotaphs in Madhya Pradesh. Free to walk along; kayaking available through local operators near the bridge.
