Barid Shahi tombs

The Barid Shahi tombs are tombs of the Barid Shahi dynasty. They are located in Bidar in the Indian state of Karnataka.

The Barid Shahi dynasty ruled between 1492 and 1695.

They were built during the medieval period in the 16th and 17th centuries.

The tombs were built in the Indo-Islamic style typical of the Deccan Sultanates. Similar necropolises include the Qutb Shahi tombs in Hyderabad. They are set in a garden, of which a few mango and tamarind trees still survive.[citation needed]

The Tomb of Qasim Barid lies to the East of his son Amir Barid's unfinished tomb.

Amir Barid lies in an unfinished tomb. He began the construction of his tomb, however, he died in 1542 CE before the tomb could be completed.

The tomb of Ali Barid was completed in 984 Hijri (1576-1577 CE), three years before his death.

The tomb of Ibrahim Barid is a replica of his father Ali Barid's tomb. The tomb is located on a raised platform 6 feet tall.
