Naulakha, also known as Rudyard Kipling House, is a home in Dummerston, Vermont where author Rudyard Kipling wrote The Jungle Book and Captains Courageous. Kipling had named the house after the Naulakha pavilion, situated inside Lahore Fort.[4]. The Mughal architecture of the monument had inspired him during his earlier stay (between 1882-1887) in Lahore.[5]
The house was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1993.[2][1]
