Kareng Ghar , Garhgaon, Assam - www.vishvabhraman.com
Kareng Ghar (Pron:/ˌkɑ:ɹɛŋ ˈgɑ:/, Assamese: কাৰেং ঘৰ; meaning "royal palace") also known as The Garhgaon Palace, is located in Garhgaon, 15 km from present-day Sivasagar, in Upper Assam. Of all Ahom ruins, the Kareng Ghar is one of the grandest examples of Ahom architecture. The palace structures were made of wood and stones. In 1747 Pramatta Singha, son of Rudra Singha, constructed the brick wall of about 5 km in length surrounding the Gargaon Palace and the masonry gate leading to it.
The old palace was destroyed and the present seven storied palace was rebuilt around 1752 by Rajeswar Singha (Suremphaa, 1751-1769).
