Bara Kaman, 16th century mausoleum in Vijaypura District, India
The grand monument features twelve unfinished stone arches arranged in perfect symmetry, forming a rectangular structure with intricate carvings and architectural details.
Ali Adil Shah II commissioned this mausoleum in 1672 for his family, but construction halted upon his death, leaving the planned domed structure incomplete.
The monument incorporates design elements from Indo-Islamic architecture, displaying the technical expertise of craftsmen from the Deccan Sultanate period.
Visitors can reach the monument through Vijaypura city center, with guided tours available from morning until evening throughout the week.
The structure earned its name Bara Kaman from its twelve arches, which according to local records would have supported the largest dome in the Deccan region.
