Qutub Shahi Tombs

A short distance away from Golconda fort lies the grand mausoleums of the seven Qutub Shahi kings who ruled Golconda for nearly 170 years. The magnificent cluster of tombs called the Qutub Shahi Tombs is the most eloquent specimens of Indo-Persian architecture and constitutes a storehouse of history.

The tombs of the various luminaries of the royal family are situated amidst beautiful sculpted gardens. As you walk amongst the greenery, you will marvel at the sheer artistry and architectural brilliance of the tombs that still retain their original glory despite the ravages of times. 

The sprawling well laid out gardens here make for an excellent picnic spot.  Against the historical backdrop of the tombs, a Deccan Festival is held every year where leading artists of the city showcase their talents in the field of music, dance and drama.
