Gulbarga Fort

 

This fort, arguably Gulbarga's most popular tourist attraction, was built in the twelfth century by Kakatiya king Raja Gulchand. This granite monument has a stunning façade with a lovely blend of Persian and Indian architecture. The Fort was expanded by the Bahmani rulers two hundred years later to form a formidable barrier to invaders. The structure, which has 15 towers, is sure to make you marvel at the glory of the rulers of old. With its spires and columns, the Jama Masjid located inside warms the soul. You can also picnic with your loved ones inside the fort's ruins!
