Shaniwar Wada
Shaniwarwada (Śanivāravāḍā) is an 18th-century fortification in the city of Pune in Maharashtra, India. Built in 1732, it was the seat of the Peshwa rulers of the Maratha Empire until 1818, when the Peshwas lost control to the East India Company after the Third Anglo-Maratha War. Following the rise of the Maratha Empire, the palace became the center of Indian politics in the 18th century.
The fort itself was largely destroyed in 1828 by an unexplained fire, but the surviving structures are now maintained as a tourist site.
Construction
Peshwa Baji Rao I, prime minister to Chattrapati Shahu, king of the Maratha empire, laid the ceremonial foundation of his own residence on Saturday, January 10, 1730. It was named Shaniwarwada from the Marathi words Shaniwar (Saturday) and Wada (a general term for any residence complex). Teak was imported from the jungles of Junnar, stone was brought from the nearby quarries of Chinchwad, and Lime (mineral) was brought from the lime-belts of Jejuri. Shaniwarwada was completed in 1732, at a total cost of Rs. 16,110, a very large sum at the time.

Yeah yeah
Love being in love
Love being in love
Love being in love
Who'd have thought we'd be together
It's like you fell from heaven
I thought I'd never, uh huh
But it seems that you knew better
And you only set us with love forever
Oh I'll bet these arms enough to surround you
Every time I smile it's all about you
Like the stars above they shine upon you
Nothing compares to what I get from you
I love being in love, oh what a rush,
I want your touch, I can't forget about you
You take me away to another place
I don't want to escape I can't forget about you
Love being in love
Love being in love
Love being in love
Love being in love

I wanna take you up so high to the angels choirs
And hold you tight, yeah, baby nothings impossible
When your heart is full of you and I
Oh I'll bet these arms enough to surround you
Every time I smile it's all about you
Like the stars above they shine upon you
Nothing compares to what I get from you
I love being in love, oh what a rush,
I want your touch, I can't forget about you
You take me away to another place
I don't want to escape I can't forget about you
Love being in love

I'm so far off the ground
I don't want to come down, no, no
Feels like I'm falling up
Love is [?]
I love being in love, oh what a rush,
I want your touch, I can't forget about you
You take me away to another place
I don't want to escape I can't forget about you
