The palace is not safe when the cottage is not happy...


This is the palace...Tipu Sultan's kingdom! I often wondered why do they need such a big palace to live...and then I thought...of there servants and there dozens of wives and others ...lol!!!

Genius without religion is only a lamp on the outer gate of a palace; it may serve to cast a gleam of light on those that are without, while the inhabitant sits in darkness

The best part I liked was....there were lot of people....kids from different schools and one small gal probably 5-6 yrs old who very innocently asked...her mother...I see everything in this palace but where is the washroom !!! hehehehe that was hillarious...but so genuine ...I thought!!!!!!

A palace was not considered only as a place to stay or take sjeltor,but was whole in whiole a society.....

As far as i know it consisted of all the king,his family,his clrgies and their families..Then the servents their families...Not only that..they got store house,recreational areas,dance halls,dining halls,amphitheatres,etc etc..

all in all a housing complex society...
