The palace was built by General of Palpa Khadga Samsher Rana in the 19th century as the memory of his queen Tej Kumari Devi. Right Palace is the most visited place and is equated with the Tajmahal of India. So it is considered as ‘Tajmahal of Nepal’. The green forest named Rani Ban and the Rani Ghat River surrounds Ranimahal. It is a small beautiful and magical palace with a temple, pond, and garden. Rani Mahal offers a quiet environment for visitors. Visitors can easily reach here from Tansen bazaar after a few hours on the trek. No one should miss visiting this historical place.
