Hyderabad
Hotels
 It
is rare to come across a place that welcomes the 21st
century with an 'adaab'. Hyderabad is one such place.
There is so much here to awe the senses. From the
magnificent food to the majestic monuments, from its
terrific landscapes to a populace steeped in respect
and tradition. Consisting of the twin cities of
Hyderabad and Secunderabad, Hyderabad is also the
capital of the state of Andhra Pradesh. Once the
largest princely state in India, Hyderabad had its own
flag, currency, railway, and postal system, before
being incorporated into the Indian nation.
With a rich history, Hyderabad boasts of some fine
examples of Qutub Shahi architecture - the Jami Masjid,
the Mecca Masjid, Toli Masjid and of course, the
impressive symbol of Hyderabad, the Charminar.
A unique feature of the city is that it is the only
city in the south, where the major language spoken is
Urdu.
Home to the Nizams, reportedly, the world's richest
royals, Hyderabad is also home to famous folk arts
like shadow puppetry and kuchipudi.
