This monument is situated right in front of the Old Friday Mosque and is the residence of the President of the Maldives. The structure came up back in 1914 and was initially meant to be a residence for Sultan Muhammad Shamsuddeen III’s son Prince Hassan Izzuddin. Inspirations for the palace’s architecture was taken from the colonial-style bungalows that were built in Ceylon at the time.
