Chanderi is a small town nestled in the heart of Madhya Pradesh, surrounded by forest, lakes, hills and the tales of Bundela and Malwa dynasty. Chanderi is a perfect gateway for those who want history, nature, religion and peace. It is a home for Hindus, Muslims, Jains and Adivasis.
Chanderi is spread over an 18 square kilometers and divided into two categories outer and inner Chanderi. Inner Chanderi is a complete package where you will find palaces, mosques, temples and havelis. The most amazing fact is that the Inner Chanderi is encircled with seven fortification walls of Chanderi fort. The outer Chanderi is a hub of weavers (Bunkars) where you will see how they make the Saree s. There is separate colony of weavers which is also called as Bunkar colony.
