Cities in India

Bidar

The little town of Bidar was once the capital of the Bahmani Kingdom from 1428 and later the capital of Barid Shahi dynasty. The town has a splendid 15th century fort having Ranjeenmahal, Chini Mahal and Turkish Mahal palaces.

In the middle of the town, is the impressive Khwaja Mahmud Gawan Madrasa which has a few colorful remains of typical Islamic mosaics. Also worth visiting are the huge domed tombs of the Bahmani and Barid kings.


Gulbarga
It was the capital of Bahmani Kingdom from 1347 until its transfer to Bidar in 1428. Later the kingdom, broke up into a number of smaller kingdoms – Bijapur, Bidar, Berar, Ahmednagar and Golconda. The last of these, Golconda, finally fell to Aurangzeb in 1687.

Golconda’s old fort has a number of interesting buildings inside including the Jama Masjid, reputed to have been built by a Moorish architect during the late 14th or early 15th century and is an imitation of the great mosque in Cordoba, Spain. It is unique in India, with a huge dome covering the whole area, four smaller ones at the corners and 75 smaller all the way around.

Gulbarga also has a number of imposing tombs of Bahmani kings, a shrine to a Muslim saint and the Sharana Basaveshwara Temple.
