    A very important historical monuments in the centre of the historical city. How carefully the rocks were arranged to build the memorial! A visitor will definitely salute to those wise workers in those days. Some timely maintenance is essential to keep it through the ages to come. A fully satisfied visit indeed.

    The Ibrahim Rauza tomb was built by Adil Shah II and it took around 47 years to construct it. The building which was started in 1580 and completed in 1627 constitutes of the tomb at the eastern end and a mosque at the western end both of which rise opposite each other. The two structures have a fountain and a very decorative tank between them. There is a prayer chamber in the mosque that has five arches. These buildings are enclosed within a square and have a captivating garden in front. The buildings stand on a podium which has a length of 360 feet and a width of 160 feet.

    A marvelous monument which has a long history to it. Highly advisable to visit in the winter since the crowd is lesser. Entry costs ₹25 per person, and it closes at 5 p.m. If you'd like to learn more about the history, guides are available for ₹100. These structures have an alluring garden around them.

    The very beautiful Ibrahim Rauza (1627) is a vast complex comprising a tomb and a mosque, within a spacious compound , where Ibrahim Adil Shah II and his queen, Taj Sultana are buried.. Of excellent Persian architecture with fine decorations , it is one of the loveliest monuments of Deccan . The Persian Architect is also buried here . The tomb and the mosque , facing each other , are separated by an ornamental pond. Graceful minarets rise from the corners of each building . Of special interest are the stone chains hanging from the parapet of the Mosque It is said that the tomb inspired the design for the Taj Mahal at Agra. Very well maintained (, though the streets around it are not very inviting. ) Staff at the ticketing counter were very helpful.

    Ibrahim Rauza which is the tomb complex where Ibrahim Adil Shah II is buried along with his wife queen Taj Sultana. It is one among the supreme achievements of the Adil Shahi’s which is remarkably considered and finely decorated.

The building was designed by the Persian architect Malik Sandal with the sentence of Quraan are beautifully covered on the walls. Ibrahim Roza is the tomb of Ibrahim Adil Shah II with his two sons and his mother on the left and on the right side with a mosque set in a walled garden facing over an attractive pond. The tomb is in a chamber of 13 meters and has the ceiling divided into nine squares with curved sides. It is one of the splendid mosque and tomb of Bijapur, it is known for its graceful arches, halls, intricate designs with a large crowning onion dome. The dome is rising from a lotus petal base, it is said to be a creativeness of the Taj Mahal at Agra with 24 meters. The big fountain and reservoir divide the mosque from the tomb, it is counted one among the beautiful instances of Islamic architecture. This consists of the interconnected buildings, with the faultless domes topped with the crescent moons and surrounded on the four corners with the symmetrical minarets that manages the structural simplicity with intricate stonework with point arches that leads to cool high ceiling chambers and walls richly decorated with sculptures and hangings. The construction was between the 15th to 17th century of the Ibrahim Roza and the mosque built in the walled garden facing the ornamental pond. This was located at about 2 km from Bijapur on the western outskirts of the city. It has significant sculptural decorative work with intricate design works.

    Ibrahim Rauza is a tomb built for the wife of the king. It is one of the most beautifully proportioned Islamic monument, in fact, the structure and love story is said to be the inspiration for the Taj Mahal. The visit will be between 10-20 minutes depending on the in-depth knowledge of your guide.

    One of the nicest place to visit in Bijapur. Looks very old still it stands on it's own. Ground floor is awesome. Security should check North Indians aggressively to capture Pan Masala. I saw some pan spits in some places which is disgusting

    A beautiful monument in the town of Vijayapura. A must visit following the infamous Gol Gumbaz. The place is well maintained and even the surroundings are clean. The beautiful Ibrahim Rauza (1627) is the mausoleum complex where Ibrahim Adil Shah II is buried with his queen, Taj Sultana. Exceptionally conceived and finely decorated, it is one of the supreme achievements of the Adil Shahis. Designed by a Persian architect, Malik Sandal, the tomb and a mosque are set in a walled garden facing each other over an ornamental pond. Graceful minarets mark the corners of each building, surmounted by a dome rising from a lotus petal base. The tomb is supposed to have been an inspiration for the Taj Mahal at Agra.

    This exquisite group of buildings containing the twin edifices of the sepulcher of Ibrahim Adil Shah and a mosque. Adorned by slender minarets at each corner, of the utmost elegance and delicacy, fine stone filigree and decorative work. The mosque is also a beautiful edifice with five grand arches, ornamented by carved medallions and hanging stone chains. Built on a high stone terrace, the monuments are framed by a lofty tower, ornamented with four graceful minarets, approached by a path through formal gardens. It has parking space for four wheelers.

    Good place for architecture lovers and clicking photos. Shoes aren't allowed inside, so better keep them in your vehicle before taking tickets. However there's a lady at gate who keeps them for 5-10 rs per pair. Visit early morning or sunset times for best experience

  • 4/5 Vinayaka H. 4 months ago on Google • 22 reviews
    Ibrahim Roza / Ibrahim Rauza is a complex consisting of a mausoleum and a mosque, located in Bijapur, in the Indian state of Karnataka. It was built in the 17th century by Ibrahim Adil Shah II, while possessing undeniable historical significance and architectural beauty, unfortunately falls short due to inadequate maintenance. The intricate details of the mausoleum and its surroundings are marred by signs of neglect, affecting the overall ambiance and appeal for visitors. The potential grandeur of this cultural site is hindered by the pressing need for restoration and proper care. It remains a place of historical interest, but its current state detracts from what could be a truly immersive and enriching experience for tourists. The ticket price for adults is ₹25 per person and for childrens upto 14 years of age is free.

  • 5/5 Praveen U. 2 years ago on Google
    It's memorable tomb where Ibrahim Adil Shah II is buried with his queen. It's also know as Taj Mahal of Deccan. The entrance fee per person is 25Rs You can book tickets online by scan at entrance Rs 20 Vast garden is there... Where we can take family and play games. It's best place to go for pre wedding shots. You many get classic photos in evening. Ibrahim Rauza (‘Rauza’ means "tomb") also known as Ali Rauza, built in 1627, contains the tomb of Ibrahim Adil Shah II and his queen Taj Sultana. It was originally intended to be the tomb for the queen. It is a fine square structure with twin buildings with delicate carvings. It was designed by the Persian architect, Malik Sandal (his grave also lies in the courtyard).
