Hyderabad cityscape

HYDERABAD

Hyderabad, the City of Pearls, blends 400 years of Nizami heritage—Charminar, Golconda Fort and grand palaces—with world-famous biryani and a thriving tech scene.

Charminar

Charminar is Hyderabad's iconic landmark, nestled in its old city core. Built in 1591 to mark a plague's end, it blends Persian-Islamic style with four 24m minarets (its name means "four towers") and a top mosque. Adjacent to bustling Laad Bazaar, it's a must-visit for Hyderabad's heritage.
