Qasr Beshtak

At the Sabil-Kuttab of Kathkuda, take the little alleyway that leads to Qasr Beshtak (Palace of Amir Beshtak), a rare example of 14th-century domestic architecture originally five floors high. The main hall here (which is occasionally used as a concert venue) has been beautifully restored.
