Welcome to the Second Phase of the
Chowmahalla Palace Restoration Project!


With Phase II complete, Chowmahalla is now all set to dazzle the world even more. Come and experience the unveiled splendour of the rest of the Palace.

As Aftab Mehal and Mehtab Mahal say ‘Aadab’, you can step back in time and catch glimpses of an era where Zenana and Mardana were not merely separate enclosures for men and women, but a celebration of tehzeeb and of a culture that is today being dramatically brought back to life.

Experience Tamanna – Reflections of the Royal Zenana at Aftab Mahal, an exhibition showcasing some of Hyderabad’s finest textiles and embroideries. The exhibition reflects the lifestyle of the Zenana through two occasions that are precious to women. Their marriage and their motherhood.

Be captivated by Shaan – Glimpses of the lifestyle of the Nizams at Mehtab Mahal, an exhibition that captures the essence of the Nizami lifestyle through a series of restored rooms that have been specially recreated to help you look back at history.

Come relive the magic!
