    The architect of these monument is amazing. Not very big yet attractive. All airy and everything is well planned. Need to visit this if you are visiting Warangle fort. Khush Mahal has sloping walls and slanting arches which are specific characteristics of structure built during Tughluq dynasty. Longer walls of the mahal, on the eastern and western side, have projecting stockade and six arches with thin rectangles through which light enters the hall. The main chamber is spacious with high ceilings. It can be entered through a huge entrance on the north. There are small storage rooms on each side of the hall.

    It was in a rectangular shape. Thee is no entry fee. The way to upstairs from outside was blocked with some wires. I don't know why. And entrance gates were so big which looked beautiful. And inside if you see , there were some broken idols. There is a Buddha sitting at the entrance which is carved with black stone. And Mahal was very beautiful to see. Not crowded much. Maybe because I visited on Wednesday not on weekend. There is plenty of place for parking. No fee for parking at qush Mahal.

    I visited this place in the year of 2015. I reserve an auto to visit Warangal fort, Khush Mahal , Mata Bhadrakali temple. Khush Mahal was built in the 14th Century by Tughlaqs. It is also known as Shitab Khan Mahal. The building is totally influenced by Tughlaq architecture. The entire building is constructed out of granite. There is also an staircase to the top from where you can see the visuals of Warangal fort and surrounding areas. Inside the Khush Mahal you will find some idols of gods. From Hanamkonda bust stand this place is just 9-10km. I attached some photos here , all are clicked in the year of 2015.

    It has been built within the walls of Warangal fort, presenting an opportunity for tourists to club both the sightseeing place in one visit. Khush Mahal, ... Traver ramappa,laknavaram,warangal... Its a bit difficult coz laknawaram vl b closed by 5 nd kilawarangal by 6 ... So bttr to cover Ramappa and laknawaram lake in a day nd if still there is time u can visit warangal or else nxt day...

    It's almost intact and so pleasing to the eyes. No ticket required and you wouldn't find much of a crowd here. Not going into the history of it as you can search. Walkable distance from fort and from Railway station the autos charge 100 for 2 persons

    Kush mahal was built during tughlaq dynasty in 14th century. It's also called shitab khan palace. Situated close to warangal fort. This mahal use to be a meeting hall for kakatiya rulers. You can see the ammunition canon balls here that were used during battles.

    it was built by Shitab Khan, the then Warangal Governor of Qutub Shahi Dynasty. He then used Khush Mahal as an auditorium. Hence, it is also known by the name of Shitab Khan Mahal.

    Khush Mahal is said to be built over the site of Kakatiya palace during the Tughlak reign. It was built as an audience hall in 14th century. It was then used by Shitab Khan who was Qutub Shahi Governor for Warangal during the 16th century.

    Kush Mahal is one of the marvelous architecture of big darbaar kind of big hall with big open windows. It is said like, the air flow into this mahal relieves the tension and headaches of people who sit here. No proper maintenance.

    We visited this monument on the way to Warangal fort, it can be considered as a part of the fort but it is located a little ahead of the main fort park. The entry here is free, inside you can find a few statues , most of them have some sort of damage, mostly broken heads of the idols. It is literally the living proof of the big time damage done by the invaders. You can dedicate like 10 minutes for this place , not much to see here.

    There was nothing written about it so i couldn't understand what it was. Just an old building with a wooden roof.

  • 3/5 Vikas R. 1 year ago on Google
    Not really nothing to explore here. Monument is fantastic but at the same time is very simple and common.

  • 3/5 Joshua S. 5 years ago on Google
    Simple architecture, worth a visit o ly if you're visiting the close by Warangal fort, not worth if you're traveling only to see this

  • 5/5 omer bin a. 4 years ago on Google
    A unique and beautiful stone structure located just beside the Warangal fort. There are many unique stone idols inside this structure placed neatly. There is no entry ticket for this. One good thing about this place is you can climb up to the roof to have a beautiful view of the Warangal fort and the surrounding area. The steps are too steep could be difficult for senior people to climb, but the efforts are worth the view.
