Surrounded by congested narrow streets, shops and old-buildings, close to the historical Delhi Gate Shahi Hammam is situated. Attested by a Waqf Deed is earlier than 1641 A.D. (1051A.H). It is recorded that it was personal property of architect and was source of income. An entrance fee was charged of 1-½ farthings, later emperors made free for the populace in order to gather popularity.
Here one could witness exquisite impressions depicting trees (Cyprus), flowers, grape vine, fruits, fairies, and vases. Richness of designs and variety of colours is worth praising.
