This site, located on the outskirts of Delhi, was once a hunting resort for the royal elites during the Mughal period. The structure is a haveli built using lakhori bricks, showcasing Indo-Persian architectural style. Entry to the haveli is through a beautifully designed multi-foliated arched gateway. The facade features intricate foliated arches and decorated spandrels, with a projecting balcony (neive) above the entrance supported by ornamental brackets. Inside, the courtyard is surrounded by circular arched openings resting on fluted columns. The roof structure is supported by wooden beams, and the flooring is made of stone. On both sides of the main entrance are alcoves adorned with exquisite engrailed arches crafted in the distinctive Shahjahani style.
