Daulatabad |
|
About 14 kms. northwest of Aurangabad lies Daulatabad. Founded by Raja Bhillamraj and capital of the Yadava rulers, this elevated bastion was known as Deogiri or Devagiri meaning "Hill of the Gods". The Sultan of Delhi, Muhammad Bin Tuglaq, renamed this place Daulatabad, "City Of Fortune" and even shifted his capital and its inhabitants 1100 kms. in 1338. |
