The mausoleum is located in the north of the city, in the countryside. To find it, go up the main street (turn right when you leave the dargah of Aurangzeb). After the roundabout, continue straight ahead and follow the road, turning left at the crow's feet. The mausoleum is about 500 metres after leaving the village, behind the Jar Jari Baksh mosque.

The massive mausoleum consists of a cube of pink basalt placed in the centre of a small platform. It is topped by a dome and four turrets placed at each corner. Each floor of the building is protected by a projecting overhang. On the ground floor, the central window on each side is pierced with a jali (openwork screen), while the others are walled. To the south, the window is replaced by a door allowing access to the mausoleum. In front of the mausoleum, a neoclassical Italian-style building, a movement very popular in Hyderabad at the beginning of the 20th century, allowed travellers who came to visit the tomb to rest. On the other hand, another mausoleum, identical in style to Malik Ambar's, but smaller, is probably that of one of his generals.

Walk: the countryside around Khultabad is dotted with Muslim mausoleums in a more or less good state of conservation. While it is often impossible to know who is buried there, walking the paths connecting them can be a pleasant hiking experience in the mild season. Bring a good pair of shoes, water and a picnic and play the explorer for as long as you like.
