Taramati Baradari
తారామతి బారాదరి
A twelve-doored pavilion from the Qutb Shahi era, said to be where court singer Taramati performed, now used as a venue for cultural events.
Taramati Baradari stands on a hill about 5 km southwest of Golconda Fort. Baradari means 'twelve doors'. Open on all sides to the breeze, the pavilion is said to be where the court singer Taramati once performed, her voice carrying all the way to Golconda Fort. Today the tourism department runs it as a leisure and cultural venue, often hosting concerts and festivals. The structure itself is not large, so it's best combined with a visit to Golconda Fort, or come in the evening to catch a performance.
