This monument is the largest of Narnaul’s Mughal historical monuments. The clearance of water from the inside of the building,arrangement of fountains and clearance of light and water in the underground floor can be seen. The structure of this five-storey building is square, among which there is a large square. The huge stone pillars, the Darbar Hall and the huge verandas and stairs and umbrellas of the building are unique specimens of building art. However, at this time most of the hive has been roof-stricken and the monument is in disrepair. It is said that this monument is connected to the tunnel by way of Delhi, Jaipur, Mahendergarh and Loosi. According to citizen, long time ago, a procession was in place to see a tunnel but it did not return. Birbal was known to have come here during Akbar’s reign, so this monument is known as Birbal’s hive.
