The fortress city within the walls was famous for the diamond trade and Ko-hi-noor diamond is said to have come from here. This historic Golconda fort lies 11 kms west of the city. The name originates from the telugu words "Golla" and "Konda" - 'shepard's hill'. Later the fort was taken over by the Bhaamani kings, subsequently passing to the Qutub Shahi kings rebuilt Golconda over a span of 62 years.
