The Char Kaman public square enclosed by four large archways was built as a garden at the entry to the Qutb Shahi Palace complex to the north of the Charminar area with Dad Mahal inside the enclosure. The Char-Su-Ka-Houz (tank of four directions) or Gulzar Houz was the freshwater fountain in the centre of this square. The four Kamans are namely Kali Kaman to the east, Sher-e-Batil ki Kaman to the west, Machili Kaman to the north and Charminar Kaman to the south of Gulzar Houz. There are three floors on each end of the arch, originally constructed as chambers for royal guards.
