Antiquarians opine that the deficiency of water and torment constrained Quli Qutub Shah to develop another city.

STRUCTURE & ARCHITECTURE 

The Charminar was worked at the crossing point of the authentic exchange course associating the business sectors of Golkonda with the port city of Machilipatnam. The city of Hyderabad was planned with the Charminar at its middle, spread around in four quadrants along the four cardinal bearings. Mir Momin Astarabadi of the Qutb Shahi tradition assumed a critical part and requested broad arrangements for the outline and format alongside that of the new capital city. Draftsmen from Persia were welcome to give extra outlines and recommendations. 

Enlivened by the states of Shiya Tazias worked to honor the terrible passing of Prophet Muhammed's grandson, Hussain at the skirmish of Karbala, the structure of the Charminar is splendidly square, with each side measuring 20m. The four thousand curves open into four distinct roads and stand 11m wide. The square structure suits four minarets in each corner. The minarets are 56 meters high, house two overhangs, and are finished with little sensitive vaults and complicated carvings on the outside dividers. Not at all like other conspicuous Islamic landmarks, the minarets are incorporated with the fundamental structure. Inside the minarets there is a winding staircase with 149 stages and 12 arrivals. The structure is a fine case of Indo-Islamic engineering with adequate Persian impacts. While curves and the vaults demonstrate the impact of Islamic engineering, the minarets reflect Persian impact. The sensitive stucco flower ornamentations on the roof, the galleries and the outside dividers talk about Hindu impacts.

Inferable from its compositional similitude, Charminar is frequently called "Arc de Triomphe of the East"

The second floor of the structure houses the most seasoned mosque of the city. It is situated on the western side of the rooftop. The eastern part filled in as the court at the season of Sultan Qutb Shah. There are two displays inside the Charminar - one over the other. The primary exhibition has 45 musallah or supplication spaces opening up to a revealed space that may suit more individuals amid Friday petitions


Four timekeepers were included along the four cardinal bearings in 1889. The little Vazu amidst the yard with a little wellspring gives water to Ablution for Muslims offering supplication in the Mosque.

These theories have not been affirmed till date since the presence of any such passage has not been accounted for.
