By Navin Sigamany| navinsigamany.com@ The Makki Darwaza is one of the gates of Qila Mohammadnagar, the walled capital city of the kingdom of Golconda. As with other monumental gates, it is strongly protected with double anti-siege gates and all sorts of fortifications. The name Makki darwaza is due to the fact that it faces the direction of Mecca, and anyone embarking on a pilgrimage there would leave through this gate. One of the best views of the King’s house on top of the hill can be had from the top of Makki darwaza.
By Navin Sigamany| navinsigamany.com@ The Fateh Darwaza was a prominent entrance to the city of Qila Mohammadnagar, the Qutb Shahi capital city of the kingdom of Golconda. This entrance was renamed the Fateh Darwaza when Aurangzeb made his triumphal entry into the city after the 8-month-long siege ended with a treasonous transaction. Before that, it was called the Baghnagar darwaza – it was the gate you took if you wanted to go to Hyderabad.
By Navin Sigamany| navinsigamany.com@ A rainy monsoon day seems to be an excellent day to visit the final resting places of poets and saints. We started with the famous Yousufain dargah, where the mortal remains of the twin Sufi saints, Yousuf and Shareef, lie buried. Being early in the day, there was no crush of devotees, and we were able to make our way at a sedate pace. These two Sufis were part of Aurangzeb Alamgir and his besieging army, and their tale is told reverently whenever a Hyderabadi speaks of the siege of Golconda.
