Sher Garhi Palace, Royal palace ruins near Jhelum River, Srinagar, India
The palace complex features a neoclassical facade with Corinthian columns along the riverfront, representing architectural elements from multiple periods.
Built in 1772 as a fortress during the Durrani Empire, the structure later served as residence for Afghan rulers and Dogra Maharajas of Kashmir.
The palace houses an art museum gallery in the old council building, displaying 1,500 miniature paintings that reflect regional artistic traditions.
The palace complex, declared a state protected monument in 2017, underwent restoration efforts starting in 2015 to preserve its architectural heritage.
The site occupies the location where Lohara king Ananta constructed his royal residence in 1062, marking over 950 years of continuous royal presence.
