Muhammad Quli 		Golconda - Corner Minarets

Abdullah Qutb Shah

Corner Minarets

The corner buttresses and finials of this tomb are extravagantly decorated. The bands of rosettes wrap around the octagonal stone buttresses. The slender minarets above this have geometric designs on their polygonal shafts. In the middle of each side of the tomb is a portico with slender stone columns and brackets.
