This place inside the Citadel of Champaner, in Champaner-Pavagadh Archaeological Park is one of the pleasure places of the Royal people between 15th and 16th century.
In the Kabootar Khana or Pigeon House located next to Large Pond, Sultan had a personal collection of pigeons and he would relax watching the pigeons fly around.
This was the summer pavilion of the royal family and they would relax in the cool breeze that blows through the pillars in the summer.

Wonderful, Nice captured.

A stately edifice!
Interesting structures.
I wondered what a pleasure palace was for a minute!
so unusual but very magnificent buildings!
I think this would be a lovely spot for the royal family would vacation.....but I have never heard of anyone having a collection of pigeons they he loved to watch. The structure is really pretty. Love the carving going around the top. lovely. genie
It appears to have sunk or have been buried, am I looking at it right?
Worth a Thousand Words
Beautiful photos and rich with history!
So interesting. They built those structures to last a while.
wow, neat ruins!
Lovely photos! The structure overlooks a lake which was completely when I visited Champaner a couple of months back. Now, during the monsoon, it's probably full of water and very scenic.
Wow amazing place :)
Nice captures... :-)
