Oshnaverci Palace (Zaclaric Audonian : کاخ سلاطین) is the official residence and workplace of the Sultan of Zaclaria. As such, the Oshnaverci Palace is often also used metonymically to refer to the government of Zaclaria. Designed by famed architect Ashik Al-Qurhorbi for Imperator Darcaes in the mid-19th century, the massive 483,523 ft² palace sits on the edge of Koushahr Bay and is part of a 21-hectare complex that includes 12 acres of gardens, contains 285 rooms, 46 halls, and 6 bathhouses.
