The Nizam's Legacy

November 20, 2008
The restoration work included not only the buildings in their original style using the particular material of yore, but also the furniture, the priceless artifacts, the armoury, the royal textiles of the Nizam's family and other valuable antiques.

The fleet of vintage cars acquired by the Nizams, from all over the world, include a Rolls Royce specially built for the sixth Nizam Mir Mahboob Ali Khan and seventh and last ruler of Hyderabad Mir Osman Ali Khan.
