Lal Kot
Founded in perhaps the 11th century as a city named "Lal Kot" under Hindu rule, in the current Mehrauli area. In around 1180, Hindu ruler Prithviraj Chauhan expanded this city and renamed it Qila Rai Pithora. Some of the ruins of the fort ramparts from this period are still visible around Qutb Minar and Mehrauli.
It consists of a mosque and a tomb of Jamali and Kamali. Jamali was the alias given to Shaikh Jamali Kamboh, a renowned Sufi saint who lived during Lodi and Mughal dynasties. Kamali was an unknown person who was Jamali's disciple and his lover, according to the oral stories and traditions.
It is the tomb of Ghiyasuddin Balban, a ruler of the Slave dynasty. It is believed that the first arch, which later became an important part of Indian architecture was built in this mausoleum only. The same goes for the dome, which has been destroyed. Besides, his tomb lies the tomb of his son Khan Shahid.
