Gulzar Mahal, Royal palace in Bahawalpur, Pakistan.
The Gulzar Mahal displays three floors of Indo-Saracenic architecture with octagonal towers, domed roofs, and detailed stone carvings across its exterior walls.
Construction of this government office complex began in 1900 under Bahawal Khan V, initially named Mubarak Mahal within the larger Bahawalgarh Palace compound.
The palace integrates local, Sikh, and Arabic architectural elements through its jharokha balconies, Mughal-style chhatri roofs, and traditional Islamic decorative patterns.
The military currently occupies the palace complex as government offices, restricting public access to this architectural monument since 1966.
The structure sits within a 75-acre garden space, featuring large verandas and intricate fretwork that exemplify the fusion of regional design traditions.
