Hindola Mahal

An audience hall also belonging to Ghiyas-ud-din's
reign, it derives the name of 'Swinging Palace' from its sloping
sidewalls. Superb and innovative techniques are also evident in its
ornamental facade, delicate trellis work in sandstone and beautifully
moulded columns.
To the west of Hindola Mahal, there are several unidentified buildings which still bear traces of their past grandeur. Amidst these is an elaborately constructed well called Champa Baoli which is connected with underground vaulted rooms where arrangements for cold and hot water were made. Other places of interest in this enclave are Dilawar Khan's mosque, the Nahar Jharokha ,Taveli Mahal, the two large wells called the ujali and Andheri Baolies and Gada Shah's shop and house, all worth a visit. |
