Jal Mahal, summer palace built by Mohammad Adil Shah between 1627 and 1656 A.D. at Kumatagi tank, 10 km from Bijapur city (on Sindagi road), is a classic example of proper utilisation of available resources to protect the residents from the summer heat. The two-storey palace served as a resort for the royals. The ground floor of the palace has layers of walls with pipes running through them. Water used to be let into these pipes to ensure that the building remained cool even in summer.The water pavilions have a network of cisterns and fountains around them. On the walls of a pavilion one can see frescoes depicting a game of polo, a hunting scene and European envoys at the court of Bijapur king.The remains of an underground tank and pleasure pavilions can still be seen on the premises. There are also bath areas fitted with showers.
There are towers on the four sides of the palace on which security guards used to be posted.he present day Kumatagi village, 10 kms east of Bijapur on Sindhagi road, is known for an ancient summer resort. That summer resort was created by Mohammad Adil Shah between 1627 and 1656 CE.
