Golkonda also known as
Golla Konda (shepherd’s hill) a ruined city of South India and capital of
ancient Kingdom of Golkonda (1518-1687), is situated 11 km west of Hyderabad.
It is also a Mandal of Hyderabad District. The region is universally famous for
the mines that have produced the world’s most famous and coveted gems,
including The Hope Diamond, Idol’s Eyes, the Koh-i-Noor and Darya-i-Noor. The
most important builder of Golconda was Ibrahim Quli Qutub Shah Wali, the fourth
Qutub king of the Qutub Shahi Dynasty.
