    Ahsan Manzil

    DhakaBangladesh1859–1872

    Ahsan Manzil, famously known as the 'Pink Palace', was the official seat and residential palace of the Nawab of Dhaka along the banks of the Buriganga River in Old Dhaka. Built between 1859 and 1872 in Indo-Saracenic Revival architecture, the palace witnessed the height of aristocratic Bengal power, political turmoil, family tragedies, and devastating tornadoes. Following the decline of the Nawab family estate in the mid-20th century, the palace fell into ruin and squalor before being restored by the Bangladesh government as a national museum. Visitors and museum staff report spectral figures in 19th-century royal court attire, disembodied orchestral music inside the grand ballroom, and footsteps echoing up the grand dome stairwell.
