Constructed in 1584 by Hyder Khan, this 24‑m cylindrical watchtower guarded the Adil Shahi capital. Its spiraling staircase leads to two cannons stationed at the parapet. Located north of Dakhani Idgah, it offers panoramic city views. Dawn–dusk visits provide the best skyline perspectives, especially in clear winter months.
