Khas Mahal, Private palace chambers in Red Fort, Delhi, India
The Khas Mahal features white marble walls, carved panels, floral patterns, and painted ceilings that extend across three distinct sections of living quarters.
Shah Jahan commissioned the construction of this residential palace within the Red Fort complex in 1639 as part of his new capital project.
The palace design merges Persian architectural elements with Indian craftsmanship through its pavilions, fountains, and decorative marble screens.
Visitors can access the palace daily from 9:30 AM to 4:30 PM through the main entrance of the Red Fort, with guided tours available.
The central hall contains niches that once held mirrors from Belgium, creating an optical effect that multiplied the light from oil lamps.
