King Kothi Palace
King Kothi Palace or Nazri Bagh Palace is a royal palace in Hyderabad, Telangana, India. It was the palace where the erstwhile ruler of Hyderabad State, Sir Mir Osman Ali Khan, the seventh Nizam, lived. It was a palace bought by his father Mahboob Ali Pasha, who had a penchant for buying ostentatious homes. Etymology Initially, this grand palace was owned by a noble, Kamal Khan who had his initials 'KK' imprinted on all the furniture, doors, crockery, windows and even on the iron grilles of the palace. Mahboob Ali Pasha was keen to possess the palace but the bold engravings of the initials made him a little wary. To his relief, a courtier came up with an excellent solution.
