Raj Niwas, Delhi

The Raj Niwas features traditional Indian and British colonial architectural elements, with gardens surrounding the primary administrative building complex.

Initially constructed as a British administrative building in the 1800s, the property transformed into the Lieutenant Governor's residence after Delhi became the National Capital Territory.

The building maintains its role as a center for governmental ceremonies and official receptions, representing the administrative authority of Delhi's Lieutenant Governor.

Public access to the gardens of Raj Niwas is permitted during specific hours, while the main building remains reserved for administrative functions.

The residence sits adjacent to Qudsia Bagh, a Mughal garden, creating a connection between colonial governance and historical Indian landscaping traditions.
