Qutub Shahi Tombs

The Qutub Shahi Tombs in Hyderabad stand as a remarkable testament to the architectural brilliance and rich history of the Qutub Shahi dynasty. Located in the Ibrahim Bagh near the famous Golconda Fort, these tombs house the remains of the dynasty’s rulers, their family members, and other important officials.

Built in the 16th and 17th centuries, the tombs are a stunning blend of Persian, Pathan, and Indian architectural styles. Each structure features intricately carved stonework, grand arches, and domes that have withstood the test of time. The complex consists of more than 20 tombs, mosques, and step-wells, offering visitors a glimpse into the grandeur of Hyderabad’s past. The largest and most striking among them is the tomb of Sultan Quli Qutub-ul-Mulk, the founder of the Qutub Shahi dynasty.

A walk through the Qutub Shahi Tombs is a journey into history. The symmetrical layout, lush green gardens, and peaceful surroundings make it a perfect spot for history enthusiasts, photographers, and architecture lovers. Restoration efforts by the Telangana government and heritage organizations have further enhanced the beauty of these monuments, ensuring they remain well-preserved for future generations.

Visitors can explore the tombs at their own pace or opt for guided tours that provide in-depth knowledge about the dynasty, architectural influences, and historical significance. The best time to visit is during the cooler months from October to March when the weather is pleasant for sightseeing.

The Qutub Shahi Tombs are an unmissable destination for those looking to experience Hyderabad’s rich cultural heritage. Whether you’re a history buff or simply someone who appreciates architectural marvels, this site offers a fascinating insight into the city’s glorious past.

What is cupping therapy?

Cupping therapy is an old healing method where small cups are placed on the skin and used to gently pull up the skin. This suction is thought to help reduce pain, decrease swelling, improve blood flow, promote relaxation, and make the body feel better overall.

Is cupping therapy safe?

Yes, cupping therapy is generally safe when performed by a trained and certified professional. Some mild side effects like bruising, soreness, or skin irritation may occur, but these typically subside within a few days.

What should I expect during a cupping therapy session?

During the treatment, the therapist will put special cups on certain parts of your body. The cups will stay there for 5 to 20 minutes. You might feel some pulling or tightness. After the cups are removed, you may see round marks on your skin where the cups were. These marks are normal and will go away in a few days or weeks.

Who can benefit from cupping therapy?

Cupping therapy may help people with long-lasting pain, tight muscles, injuries from sports, bad headaches, and feeling stressed. However, it is important to talk to therapist  first to make sure cupping is a good choice for your specific health issue.

What differentiates dry cupping and wet cupping?

Dry cupping uses just the cups and suction on the skin. Wet cupping involves making tiny cuts on the skin before putting on the cups. This is thought to help remove toxins.
