King Kothi Palace: Difference between revisions

Initially constructed this palace for his personal residence: Thus, the main gate, passerby corridors, windows and doors were engraved with the sign of "KK". Later when Nizam purchased this palace, the young Nizam felt against his pride to have the abbreviations of other ''[[nawabs]]''; he passed a [[ferman|''firman'']] and changed the abbreviation "KK" to "King Kothi," meaning [[king]]'s [[mansion]]. Thus the name King Kothi came into existence.<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":1">{{Cite book|last=Khalidi|first=Omar|url=https://libraries.mit.edu/img/libs/rotch/HyderabadGuide_2009.pdf|title=A Guide to Architecture in Hyderabad, Deccan, India|year=2009|pages=163|author-link=Omar Khalidi|access-date=2020-03-13|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190925143941/https://libraries.mit.edu/img/libs/rotch/HyderabadGuide_2009.pdf|archive-date=25 September 2019|url-status=dead}}</ref>
