Looking like the remnants of a bombed out Gothic cathedral, this expanse of arches resting on a massive plinth is actually the unfinished mausoleum of Ali Adil Shah II. Shah intended this structure to dwarf other famous tombs — e.g. the nearby Gol Gumbaz and the Taj Mahal in Agra — but when he was defeated by Aurangzeb the structure became stuck in suspended animation.
That is an amazing structure. Wonderful it is still standing.

That it is. Interesting how they made the arches too. They would build them filled in, and then knock out the centers to make them into open arches.
