Golconda Fort is a fortified citadel built by the Qutb Shahi dynasty ( 1512–1687) as the capital of the Golconda
Sultanate, located in Hyderabad, Telangana, India. Because of the vicinity of diamond mines, especially Kollur Mine, Golconda flourished as a trade centre of large diamonds,
known as the Golconda Diamonds. The region has produced some of the world's most famous
diamonds, including the colourless Koh-i-Noor , the blue Hope, the pink Daria-i-Noor , the white Regent, the Dresden
Green, and the colourless Orlov, Nizam and Jacob, as well as the now lost diamonds Florentine
Yellow, Akbar Shah and Great Mogul. It was initially called Shepherd’s Hill. According
to legend, a shepherd boy came across an idol on this rocky
hill.[citation

Kakatiya king, who constructed a mud fort around this holy spot. After 200
years, Bahamani rulers took possession of the fort. Under the Bahmani
Sultanate, Golconda slowly rose to prominence. Sultan Quli Qutb-ul-Mulk , sent by the Bahmanids as a governor at Golconda,
established the city as the seat of his government around 1501. Bahmani rule
gradually weakened during this period, and Sultan Quli formally became
independent in 1518, establishing the Qutb Shahi
dynasty based in Golconda. Over a period
of 62 years, the mud fort was expanded by the first three Qutb Shahi sultans
into the present structure, a massive fortification of granite extending around 5 km in circumference. It remained the capital of the Qutb Shahi dynasty until
1590 when the capital was shifted to Hyderabad. The Qutb Shahis expanded the fort, whose 7 km outer wall enclosed the city.
