Moula Ali Dargah was built in the memory of Hazrat Ali, the son-in-law of Prophet Mohammed. One has to climb 400 stairs to reach the holy site which was built by Asif Jahis. The views of the city from the top of the hill are nice.
Legend has it that Yakoob, a eunuch in the court of Ibrahim Quli, went to the hill after he saw Hazrat Ali seated on it. To his surprise, he saw the impression Ali's palm on a stone, which he had dreamt. He had the impression cut out and installed in a shrine.
The mosque was later built by Ibrahim Shah besides the Dargah. An Ashurkhana, a pavilion (Baradari) and a Naqqar Khana (to beat drums) were built here.
