Banquet hall:
Nawab Saadat Ali Khan built it for the British Resident and his
special guests as Dawat Khana (Dining Place). It was the most
imposing structure in the whole complex with its state
apartments and spacious saloons, furnished with costly
chandeliers, mirrors and silk Diwans. The fine furniture in the
hall was complemented by high quality of workmanship. In the
building, a stucco fireplace at the first floor level still retains a
marble like finish, and a broken fountain in the main entrance
hall is a fine example of inlaid marble work in black and white.
On the first floor, there were large verandahs supported by a
line of round pillars on all four sides. This building was used by
the Resident for entertaining important guests, specially the
Nawabs.

It was built by Nawab Asaf-ud-daula and subsequently sold to
Sacville Marcus Taylor, Assistant Resident, who again sold it to
George Prendergast in 1802. Prendergast set up a European shop
here, and later on sold the house and the business to John
Culloden. Malika Mukhdarah Aliya or Vilayati Begum, the European
wife of King Nasiruddin Haider, was the grand-daughter of
Culloden. When Nasiruddin Haider died, Mukhdarah Aliya with her
mother and her stepsister, Ashrafunnisa, came to live here.
Mukhdarah Aliya and her mother died and were buried in the
compound of the Begum Kothi. Ashrafunnisa built a mosque and
an Immambara adjacent to the Begum Kothi.
