How To Reach Rangeen Mahal
Bidar, Karnataka, India
The Rangeen Mahal (meaning 'Colored Palace') is arguably the most aesthetically preserved and architecturally spectacular palace within the Bidar Fort complex. It earned its name from the magnificent decoration of its walls, which were once adorned with vibrant tiles of different hues and intricate geometric and floral designs. Originally built by the Bahmani Sultan Mahmud Shah Bahmani, it was significantly rebuilt and lavishly decorated by the Barid Shahi ruler Ali Barid Shah between 1542 and 1580 CE. This palace was the Sultan's private residential quarter, a serene oasis inside the heavily fortified citadel. Its fame rests on the exceptional quality of its craftsmanship, particularly the use of mother-of-pearl (Nacre) inlay into jet-black stone, an exquisite and rare art form that remains visible today, setting it apart from all other Deccan palaces. The palace features beautifully carved wooden pillars, arched doorways, and a small courtyard with a water channel and cistern, designed for comfort and luxury. It represents the height of Barid Shahi artistic refinement and their appreciation for Persian poetry and art, with Persian verses often inscribed on the tilework and arches.
