City Map of Bijapur - Karnataka
Recognized for its medieval monuments, including the world famous Gol Gumbaz, Bijapur is located in the southern state of Karnataka.
Known for their architectural brilliance, most of the monuments of Bijapur are created by the Adil Shahi rulers involving 15th and 17th century. The buildings were built from the local basalt, having a dreary brown monochromatic outcome, and are simply impressive.
In a city still unspoiled by the soulless multi-storied blocks, the sun always sets after a grand dome. Presently, there are only two Digambar Jain temples at Bijapur.
