BOW DOWN.. THE DOPEST OF THE DOMES IS HERE.!!
Gol Gumbaz, the tomb of king Mohammed Adil Shah, was completed in the year 1656 and turned out to be the largest single chamber that was ever built.
Here's the fact to marvel about though. Following the style of Indo-Islamic architecture, even a slight whisper by someone standing in its gallery can be heard everywhere else in the gallery, and if somebody claps, the sound of it echoes several times.
This architectural masterpiece is located in the Bijapur district of Karnataka. The huge dome, is the second largest in the world, next only to St. Basilica in Rome.
