Chowmahala palace is located very near (less than one km) to Charminar. In fact we took a walk from Charminar to the Chowmahala palace. Chowmahalla palace is one of the important attractions of Hyderabad. The entrance ticket is slightly high (25 rs that time) compared to the tickets of other similar places. You can also buy camera tickets to take pictures/video inside the palace.
This huge palace was built over 200 years ago by the Nizams of Hyderabad to entertain their guests and visitors. There are many huge palaces in the complex and all these palaces are now converted to museums. In these museums you can see various types of weapons used by the warriors during that period. Besides you can see the furnitures and other household items used by the Nizams and royal families of Hyderabad. The palace has two courtyards, southern courtyard and northern courtyard. In the southern courtyard there are four palaces Afzal mahal, Mehtab mahal, Tahniyat mahal and Aftab mahal. In the northern courtyard there are Bara Imam and Sise Alaat. Besides there are gardens, pools and fountains which add to the beauty of the palace.
Chowmahala palace is one of the five important tourist points of Hyderabad, including Charminar, Golkonda fort etc. The Chowmahala palace is such a huge complex that it can easily take a full day to visit all the palaces inside. If you are going Hyderabad don’t forget to visit this place.
