Mohatta Palace
Mohatta Palace is located in a high-class area of Karachi i.e. Clifton. It was built by Shivratan Mohatta, a successful Marwari businessman in 1927
The story behind the construction of the Mohatta Palace is an interesting tale of love. It reminds me of the story of Taj Mahal, which is one of the seven wonders of the world and was built on the orders of the Mughal emperor Shah Jehan in ‘loving memory of his wife’.
The difference is that Shah Jehan built Taj Mahal after his wife died, while Mohatta had the palace built in order to save his wife from dying.
