Abstract

Description

Shortly after E.W. Smith's survey, the wall and viaduct connecting the palace with the Emperor's Daulat Khana were destroyed. From the entrance of the palace the screened viaduct ran across the road behind 'Maryam's House', joining the top of the cloister facing the Daftar Khana. Through it the Emerpor had access from his quarters (Khwabgah) to every palace in the Haram Sara.
