Jod Gumbaz
ಜೋಡ ಗುಮ್ಮಟ
Two domed tombs standing side by side, holding the Adil Shahi general Khan Muhammad and his spiritual teacher, symmetrical in design.
Jod Gumbaz was built in the late 17th century. Two octagonal tombs stand side by side, each capped with a dome on a bulbous base. They hold Khan Muhammad, a general of the late Adil Shahi dynasty, and his spiritual teacher, Abdul Razzak. According to legend, Khan Muhammad defected to the Mughal side, so the tombs also carry a contested history. The tomb area is quiet, and worshippers often come to pray. It lies in the southwest of the old city. Admission is free, and it can be visited together with Taj Bawdi.
