Advantages: exudes a rich heritage culture, yet is modern! (aka Hi-tech city -due to software programmers) best IT recruitment, food, pleasant evenings outdoors, shopping, people! Disadvantages: getting there..? maybe dusty for some, not the usual touristy place..?
Hyderabad Deccan is found in the state of Andhra Pradesh in India, it is a city that still exudes charm, which is reminiscent of a bygone era with its rich heritage and culture. Today, it is a mixture of modern influences with memories of the trappings and sophistication of the Nizams (Royalty) that ruled that part of India. It is also the city I originate from and have grown extremely fond of over the last few years as I discover more and more about its history and culture. Each time I visit the place; the speed of rapid development, modernisation and technology never ceases to amaze me! I hope to be able to provide you with an insiders view to Hyderabad both from a tourist’s point of view and from years of living and visiting the place. A key to understanding “Hyderabadi” culture and heritage lies in its rich ...

Advantages: Big, friendly, exotic, friendly, cheap, friendly. Disadvantages: Pollution and sense distortingly weird traffic
India assaults your senses.
It?s a cliché, but it?s true nonetheless. Step out of the plane, and there?s a definite change?everything: smell, heat, noise, all these things are different. You?ve left Europe behind and you?ve stepped into another, older, world. Different rules apply, different customs.
And that?s just the airport! Wait ?til you get outside!
Arriving in Hyderabad towards the start of the city?s business day, we were thrust directly into the maelstrom of an Indian rush hour. The cars the hotel had sent to meet my two companions and myself were tiny and apparently had no air-conditioning. They were also driven by people who seemed firmly of the belief that dying on the road would be a fine way to go, and, (to my untutored eye) they did everything in their power to make it happen.
Somehow, despite travelling ...

Advantages: charming, unique, cultural, tradital and modern Disadvantages: traffic?, not touristy
Hyderabad Deccan is found in the state of Andhra Pradesh in India, it is a city full of charms and surprises. It is a mixture of modern influences with memories of the past whereby the Nizams ruled that part of India. It has a wealth of old palaces and beautiful architecture, though sadly many of the palaces are in ruins.
More recently, it has become known as the hi-tech city of India due to its fast developing software and web developers. Microsoft just opened its first office in India there, investing $50 million . It is booming with an interesting array of modern buildings, alongside the old, yet beautiful moghul architecture. There are still remains of some British architecture when they ruled there too.
Places of interest include the many old beautiful Palaces, such as Chiran Palace, QUTUB SHAHI Tombs, GOLCONDA FORT ...
