Lotus Mahal, Hampi

Lovely #LotusMahal - Recreational arena for royal ladies of #Vijaynagara #empire

 

Symmetrically structured & deftly designed to resemble an open #Lotus #bud, it is incorporated with an exclusive cooling system that made sweltering summers pleasant

 

Among the few lucky structures unscathed by enemy attacks was also called Kamal Mahal or Chitragani Mahal
