Rajaram I of Kolhapur Height

Rajaram Chhatrapati, also known as Rajaram I of Kolhapur, was the Raja of Kolhapur, India, from 1866 to 1870. He was one of the first princely rulers in colonial India to sail overseas, despite Hindu norms at the time against crossing oceans to foreign shores. In 1870, he travelled to Europe, spending four months in England, and kept a diary. He died toward the end of his trip in Florence, Italy, at the age of 20. Two years after his death, his diary was published posthumously in English.
