CHAUBURJI (RIDGE NEAR HINDU RAO HOSPITAL)-
It was built by Firuz Shah Tughluq (A.D. 1351-88), evidently as a mausoleum and had probably formed part of his palace called Kushk-i-Shikar or Kushk-i-jahan-Numa by contemporary writers. The
presence oflate Mughal features in this structure points to its subsequent alteration and repairs. According to Carr Stephen, the original three bays deep building had four corner domes, probably from which it derived its name chauburji (i.e. a
four-domed building).
