King Kothi Palace, Royal palace in Hyderabad, India
King Kothi Palace features Indo-Saracenic architecture with high walls, grand courtyards, ornate windows, and elaborate stone carvings throughout its three distinct sections.
The palace, built in 1911 by architect Kamal Khan, became the residence of the seventh Nizam of Hyderabad, Mir Osman Ali Khan.
The main entrance gate maintains a traditional curtain system that indicated the Nizam's presence through a raising and lowering mechanism.
The eastern section of the palace now functions as a government hospital, while the western wing remains under private ownership of the Nizam family.
The initials 'K.K.' carved on the palace were changed from 'Kamal Khan' to mean 'King Kothi' after the Nizam acquired the property.
