Nothing is more empowering than putting your thoughts out there for the world to see. The Internet attracts a global audience and I know from experience that the connections you make can be life (and career) changing.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The Shish Mahal was the residential palace of Faujdar Khan, the governor appointed by Emperor Farrukh Siyar, the great grandson of emperor Aurangzeb. The palace was built by Khan in 1733 AD. The Diwan-e-Aam of the palace is a rectangular structure made of sandstone. It is built on a high plinth with mirrors fixed in the wooden ceiling and on the backside of the wall, that gave the palace its name of Shish Mahal or glass palace. A continuous water flow in the artificial channel in front of Diwan-e-Aam was provided by a fountain pool made over the plinth.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The tiny entrance to this medieval governor's house was difficult to find in the narrow bylanes of Farrukhnagar but after entering it opened up in a huge sprawling open space that hosted a garden on both sides of what was an erstwhile water channel housing fountains.
The pathway in between led to the main building called Sheesh Mahal or crystal palace. Unfortunately, all the glasswork is now gone and what remains are the walls and ceilings that once adorned patterns of multi-colored glass and semi-precious stones.
The ceilings too were once ornately decorated with glass hence the name sheesh mahal but what still remains is the ruins of a majestic building.
The arches of the Diwan-e-Khas are attractive and there are several tunnels in the thick walls for ventilation.
Within the premises of the fortified palace are also the ruins of the servant quarters and out of nowhere appears this modern plaque that commemorates the sacrifice of the martyrs of the First War of Independence in 1957.
Time stood still in this medieval palace and I parted from this place with a heavy heart pondering about the glory that this grand home must have witnessed in its heydays.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Good location for shoot, you can use walls as a nice backdrop. You have to contact the person there befor you go for shoot and fix your dates. Sundays are best to shoot at this location as no one will be visiting the place and you can shoot however you want. They charge between 2-5k.
