'''Lalapet''' is a very old suburb located in [[Hyderabad]]. The suburb is located at about {{convert|5.5|km|mi}} from Secunderabad.<ref>{{cite book |last=Alam |first=Shah Manzoor |author-link= |date=2011 |title= Urban Growth Theories and Settlement Systems|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=2E-XejrqHt0C&dq=Lalapet,+Hyderabad&pg=PA154 |location= |publisher=Concept Publishing Company|page=154 |isbn=978-81-8069-739-5}}</ref> Earlier when Lalapet was still a village, the entire locality was enclosed in a protective wall. The wall was built during the regime of [[Qutb Shahi]]. It is also claimed by locals that [[Asaf Jahi dynasty|Asaf Jahi rulers]] would stop at Lalapet while travelling to the shrine at [[Moula Ali]]. The wall constructed using stones and masonry was reportedly almost {{convert|15|ft|m}} high and had four ''darwazas'' (gateway). The walls and the gateways are being gradually demolished and as of today only two gateways are left.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.thehansindia.com/posts/index/Telangana/2019-01-10/Grave-threat-to-Lalapet-walls-darwazas/472533|publisher=Hans India|title=Grave threat to Lalapet walls & darwazas|first=Venu|last=T.
