    Hayat Baksh Begum

    Hayat Bakshi Begum was probably the most influential lady of


    medieval Deccan.
    She lorded over the affairs of the Golconda kingdom first as
    daughter, then consort and finally as Queen Mother during the
    reign of three kings of the Qutub Shahi dynasty
    Immensely popular among the denizens of Golconda due to her
    compassion, piety and largesse, Hayat Baksh was reverently
    addressed to as Ma Sahiba
    Tomb Of Hayat Baksh Begum

    The tomb has a square


    chamber surrounded by
    spacious gallery.
    The upper storey has live
    arches and octagonal buttress
    at corners.
    Hayat Baksh Mosque

    bakshi Begum Masjid and also

    Architecture of the Tombs

    The grandeur of the tombs is


    shielded by the majestic,
    landscaped gardens
    The styles of the tombs are
    perhaps, the most important
    reason why thousands of
    tourists flock the resting
    places of these Golconda
    rulers
    Architecture of the Tombs

    One will be able to see Hindu,


    Persian, Pathan and Deccan
    styles of architecture
    We will be able to spot the
    amalgam of the Indo-Saracenic
    entrances, Persian minarets,
    domed structures and
    intricately designed columns
    Architecture of the Tombs

    Simple designs and


    geometrical symmetry are
    probably the only patterns
    that glaze his sarcophagus
    Tombs rises as high as 42
    meters and are protected by a
    large dome.
    Architecture of the Tombs

    The corridors of the famous


    Qutub Shahi tombs are famous
    for its Indo-Saracenic style of
    architecture
    Pointed arches and 28
    openings add to the kingly
    architecture of the Qutub
    Shahi Tombs.
