And thats a wrap of Hyderabad, Telangana visiting some iconic places, meeting some extraordinary people and over eating some amazing delicacies of the city. Telangana\u2019s largest and most-populous city, redesignated as the capital of both Telangana and Andhra Pradesh. Hyderabad was founded by the Qu\u1e6dbSh\u0101h\u012b sultans of Golconda on the east bank of the Musi River. Last three days (3rd to 5th Dec 2021) in this beautiful city has been just amazing. We are definitely coming back soon.

Some of the highlights:

1. Charminar, a  grand architectural composition in Indo-Saracenic style with open arches and four minarets, is regarded as the supreme achievement of the Qu\u1e6dabSh\u0101h\u012b period. It formed the centrepiece around which the city was planned. It is the landmark of the old city of Hyderabad and it is hope to many small business locates here. We get to meet shopkeepers and artisans who are trying hard to get back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
