A brief introduction to Hyderabad

One of India’s most evocative ancient quarters, Hyderabad boasts historical architecture and sacred sites that provide fascinating insights into South India’s rich culture.

Uncover lanes of tea shops and spice merchants in the Old City of Hyderabad, where you’ll also find some of India's most renowned architecture. Visit Golconda Fort, a former diamond trading centre that was once the Qutb Shahi dynasty capital, and test out the building’s renowned acoustics.

Another worthwhile site is The Charminar, a 16th-century mosque now recognised as the symbol of Hyderabad. Be sure to visit more of the mosques and Hindu temples spread across the city, like the hilltop white marble Hindu temple of Birla Mandir, mosque Mecca Masjid and the beautifully restored Chowmahalla Palace.
