Chowmahalla Palace was once the center of Hyderabad, India. It was the seat of the Asaf Jahi dynasty where the Nizam entertained his official guests and royal visitors. While Salabat Jung (Nizam's Prime Minister) initiated its construction in 1750, it was completed by the Nizam sometimes arouund 1857. It is also believed to be a replica of Shah of Iran's palace in Teheran. This palace has been opened to public now. It is used to host gorgeous parties (of course, for a pretty sum) in the evenings.
