Mohammed Adil shah started construction of his own tomb to bury his mortal remains right after his ascent to the throne in 1626. Mohammed Adil shah intended to build for himself a mausoleum comparable and possibly grander in scale than the Ibrahim Rauza, the tomb of his father, Ibrahim Adil Shah II. The composition and ornamentation of the Ibrahim Rauza is exceptionally intricate and beautiful. Going for size, the Gol Gumbaz was planned as a mammoth single chamber structure and remains one of the biggest in the world till date. The construction of the tomb continued throughout Mohammed Adil Shah’s regime but could not be executed to full extent due to the sudden demise of the Sultan in 1656. Buried along with the Sultan are his two wives, Taj Jahan Begum and Aroos Bibi, his mistress Rambha, his daughter and his grandson.
i hope this answer of ur question
An echo can be heard multiple times in the golghumat located in Vijaypur, Karnataka because of multiple or continuous reflections on its surfaces.
The highlight of the Gol Gumbaz is its central dome that stands without any support. The echo system of this tomb features an excellent combination of civil engineering and sound. Any sound produced here gets reflected throughout the dome producing the echo at least three to four times in a second. If the surroundings are very quiet, you are likely to hear the echo at least seven to ten times
