Zafar Mahal, once the summer retreat of the last Mughal Emperor, Bahadur Shah Zafar II, now stands in ruins, reflecting the decline of a bygone era. Despite its historical significance and protected status, neglect and vandalism have taken their toll on this architectural marvel. Urgent restoration efforts are needed to preserve its cultural heritage and honor the legacy of the Mughals, inspiring the conservation of other historic sites for future generations to appreciate.
