A confluence of culture
The Golconda Fort is a must visit
A fine blend of old and new
Don't miss the Hyderabadi Biryani!
Shwetal Rai who lives in Hyderabad says her city is where you can experience real Indian summer. So what's keeping you from visiting it?
Set foot in Hyderabad and you'll be amazed at its many different faces. If you step out of its swanky international airport -- adjudged one of the 5 best in the world -- you'll drive past a city high on development -- skyscrapers with glass skins and metal spines, India's longest flyover spanning a whopping 11.6 km and numerous shopping malls. If on the other hand you prefer to chug your way into the city, the bustling Secundrabad railway station welcomes you. Navigating through the wide roads made narrow by the street-side shops and uncouth traffic, you'll see a city that is torn between maintaining the old world charm and adapting the new age demeanour.
The sun loves to shine down upon Hyderabad. In the summer months from March-June, it beats down relentlessly as temperatures reach a high of 43 degrees Celsius in May. So, if you are headed for a vacation, brace yourself for hot days with both scheduled and unscheduled power cuts. The evenings however, are very pleasant and make way for a maze of entertainment. Here's a list of to-do's and places that you simply cannot miss:
