Shaikpet Sarai is a sarai (rest house) located near Golconda in Hyderabad.[1]
It was built by Abdullah Qutb Shah in the 17th century for the benefit of various travellers to Golconda and was located on the way to Bidar.[2] [3] It is a heritage structure and in need of restoration.[4] [5]
The sarai had 30 rooms, stables for horses and camels, a mosque and a tomb of an unknown Sufi saint. It could accommodate 500 people.
