A palace complex having a history of more than 150 years, Mubarak Mandi Palace, was the royal residence of the erstwhile Dogra Kings. A very beautiful architecture, blended with Baroque, Mugal, Rajasthani and European styles, attracts the tourists invariantly to this spot. The most striking section is the Sheesh Mahal. The pink hall in this palace houses the Dogra art museum displaying many valued paintings.

The galleries and the beautifully decorated halls have witnessed many ceremonies and official functions. This complex, surrounding a beautiful courtyard and a fabulous garden, was the venue for many significant proceedings involving common people and royal audience. The palace site has an imposing view of Tawi river and old city built on the hillock.

Presently Mubarak Mandi Palace is an archaeologically and historically valuable monument and comprises many government offices and courts.
