Fort Bijapur

Had a great experience here,the place was very well maintained they followed all the covid 19 norms. The tickets were also booked online. The museum is also good but not to forget should book separate ticket to visit. T echo for which the place is famous for is phenomenal, overall a good place to visit and is very near to the highway.

A must visit place to experience the epicness and pure creativity of the ancient architects in very grand and astonishing manner.

The astounding sound technology used by architects of that time to make sound travel form one end to another by natural means is quite amazing.

Only con we have here is that you have to climb 7 floor giant rock stairs to reach on top but it's worth it. Absolutely loved my visit here.

Bijapur a historic city with marvellous building once you ha e to see is Gol gumband where scientific voice call can be made through Wall if you say some thing in this wall frontier can listen it have look at that time Bijapur city map and other things in museumother monuments are uppali burg, Malik maidan, Taj bawdi ext.

Gol Gumbaz is the mausoleum of the king Mohammed Adil Shah, Adil Shah Dynasty.
Recommend you to visit when there's less crowd
Don't visit on Friday s as the museum will be closed.

Such an architectural marvel. The structure is very huge and the lawns around are very maintained. It us ASI protected monument.
To appreciate the acoustics inside, it is advisable to visit early morning. The lawns and structure is open to public at 6 am. The museum inside opens at 9 am.
Even a soft whisper is audible across under the dome on the 7th floor. Once crowds increase, the noise level increases.
There are 108 steep steps to reach the top.

It is the second most dome in the world. It is ossum experience to visit.
The scientific voice call may be heard if we shout through the wall.

Well maintained monuments can go with family and friend and also couples can go and have fun and can enjoy the nature , the upper view is awesome and the sound that echoes 7 times really a brilliant and mind blowing

Gol Gumbaz is the mausoleum (tomb) of the king Mohammed Adil Shah, Adil Shahi Dynasty. Construction of the tomb, located in Bijapur , Karnataka, India, was started in 1626 and was completed in 1656. The name is based on "Gol Gumbadh" derived from "Gola Gummata" meaning "circular dome". It follows the style of culture and [Indo-Islamic architecture] . Even a slight whisper by someone standing in its gallery can be heard everywhere else in the gallery, and if somebody claps, the sound of it echoes several times.
