Takht Mahal 		Bidar - Throne Room

Mahmud Gawan

Throne Room

This chamber is identified as the throne room. The circular stone steps on the right lead to a small entrance at the base of a high arched recess with a markedly pointed profile. It is flanked by double tiers of rectangular panels containing similar pointed arches. All the arches and panels are outlined by strips of basalt. Hexagonal panels in the spandrels of the main arch once depicted royal tiger and sun emblems.
