Qutb Shahi Tombs is a complex of 21 tombs of the Qutb Shahi dynasty, located in Hyderabad, Telangana, India. The Qutb Shahi dynasty ruled the region from the late 16th century until the early 17th century. The tombs are located in the Ibrahim Bagh, near the famous Golconda Fort.

The tombs were built to house the remains of the rulers of the dynasty and their family members, and they reflect the architectural style of the time. The complex is spread over a large area and includes tombs of various sizes and shapes. The most famous tomb in the complex is that of Muhammad Quli Qutb Shah, who is also credited with founding the city of Hyderabad.

The tombs are built in a combination of Indo-Islamic and Persian styles, with intricate carvings and decorations. The tombs are made of granite and are topped with domes, some of which are decorated with ornamental finials. The tombs are set in landscaped gardens, which add to the beauty of the complex.

The Qutb Shahi Tombs have been restored and maintained by the Archaeological Survey of India, and they are a popular tourist attraction in Hyderabad. The tombs are a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the region and are a reminder of the power and influence of the Qutb Shahi dynasty.
