Raske fakta: The palace complex features a unique blend of Persian, Indo-Saracenic, and European architectural styles. It served as the seat of the Asaf Jahi dynasty, who ruled Hyderabad for over two centuries.
Høydepunkter: A striking feature is the ornate clock tower that still chimes, located above the imposing Khilwat Mubarak hall. The palace hosts an exclusive collection of vintage cars once owned by the Nizams, adding a rare touch for history and automobile lovers.
