Daidhee bungalows comprising two gigantic architectural monuments of early 20th century were meant for the accommodation of royal families. The twin bungalows which are in depleting condition these days had there own clean water drawing system with a complete infra structure of well besides them. The Daidhee bunglows were built by Mir Imam Bux Khan Talpur.

After the annexation of Khairpur State with Pakistan, like many other architectural monuments of the town or else where the twin bungalows of Daidhee also lost to the charm and consequently the defunct ruling family had to allow a residential hospital in the Daidhee bungalows: one was meant for male patients and the other bungalow was spared for female patients. However sometime in the 1970s the hospital was shifted to its new premises while the Daidhee bungalows were left abounded. Since then both are locked from outside. One of the boungalows had the traces of an underground chamber which was used as the personal treasury of the royal families containing maunds of precious metals to the hard currency.
