Hyderabad’s most iconic architectural delight,
Charminar is beyond just a popular
monument. It’s the
nucleus of the busiest and most vibrant lanes of the
Old City
studded with shops selling bangles and
pearls. It can be too crowded and overwhelming, but to
every tourist’s delight, the gems and hidden treasures
...More
in this
neighbourhood are full of culturally rich
stories. The best view of one of the city’s
oldest
mosques, Mecca Masjid is from the top of Charminar.
It’s quite a usual sight of
walking into a grey sea of
pigeons with an aroma of meaty street food and
melting
dosas, as you are exploring the little pockets
around this magnificent historic building. Walk along
the streets that lead you to museums and palaces of
the Nizams who ruled the city and soak up the old
world charm in its truest character.
