Hyder's pearl
December 6, 2014 - Golconda Fort, Hyderabad My first visit to Hyderabad happened incidentally due to my colleague's marriage. We (colleagues) landed there a day before marriage. As we had a spare day, we planned to do some sight-seeing around Hyderabad's more famous landmarks. First up, was Golconda fort. This fort built on top of a hill is surrounded by vast ramparts. On the way up and from hill-top you get good views of the city below. Later that day we also covered Birla temple and planetarium, Lumbini Park and Hussain Sagar lake.
