Geography

Koilkonda is located at 16.7500°N 77.7833°E / 16.7500; 77.7833. It has an average elevation of 464 metres (1525 ft).

Situated nearby perched on a hilltop is the Koilkonda Fort, the erstwhile outpost of the Qutb Shahi dynasty. It is on the NH 7, 125 km from Hyderabad. To reach the top, one needs to trudge across a deep canyon on the west or a series of streams if coming through east before reaching a plight of steps that leads to the fort. There are seven gates leading to the fort. The first one has an inscription of Ibrahim Qutb Shah that dates back to 1550. The fourth gate leads to a dilapidated palace. Along with the fort, which itself is a magnificent structure, there is also a mosque and an eidgah.

gollark: "Edit" there is a "random system link", the "Unsafe link" is an unvisited one, "link" with an underline is a visited external one, and the rest are pages.
gollark: How should I redo the color schemes? There's a color for "random system link of some kind", "page" (eventually "nonexistent page" too), "visited external link", and "unvisited external link".
gollark: What?
gollark: I'm thinking it might be good to use different colors for different types of "link" in minoteaur instead of various near-identical shades of blue.
