King Kothi Palace ((ウルドゥー語:شاہ کوٹھی محل), (テルグ語:కింగ్ కోఠి ప్యాలెస్); or Nazri Bagh Palace) is a royal palace in Hyderabad, Telangana, India. It was the palace where the erstwhile ruler, the Seventh Nizam, Osman Ali Khan, Asaf Jah VII, of Hyderabad state lived. ==History== The palace was constructed by the Kamal Khan, and it was sold to Nizam once he expressed his desire for the palace. The young Nizam moved in when he was only 13. After his accession to the throne in 1911, he continued to stay at the palace and did not move to Chowmahalla Palace where his father lived. Initially, Kamal Khan constructed this palace for his personnel residence: Thus the palace main gate, passerby corridors, windows and doors were engraved with the sign of "K K". Later when Nizam purchased this palace, as it was a royal residence now, the young Nizam felt against his pride to have those abbreviations of other nawabs; he passed a ferman and changed the abbreviation "K K" to "King Kothi," meaning kings mansion. Thus the name King Kothi came into existence. In the sprawling palace, various kinds of expensive items were stored in steel trunks, fastened with English-made padlocks.〔(The treasure at King Kothi Palace )〕 The palace has three main buildings, divided into two groups. It also has a huge library used by the Last Nizam. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「King Kothi Palace」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
