Hazarduari Palace, Palace and museum in Murshidabad, India
The Hazarduari Palace stands 80 feet tall with three floors, spanning 130 meters in length and 61 meters in width along the Bhagirathi River.
Duncan Macleod designed this neo-classical palace for Nawab Nazim Humayun Jah, with construction beginning in 1829 and completion in 1837.
