Jahaz Mahal
Jahaz Mahal
or the Ship Palace is located next to Hauz-i-Shamsi in Mehrauli.
It is inferred to have been built during the Lodi period (1452-1526) as a pleasure resort or a sarai.
It was so named, since its reflection (illusion) in the surrounding reservoir looked like a ship floating on a lake.
