    5 Stars Hyderagood, Hyderabad, but Not Hydera-indifferent Diamond review 20/01/2003
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Big, friendly, exotic, friendly, cheap, friendly.

    Disadvantages 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.

    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 ... more

We had visited the following places which provided a nice overview of modern and old Hyderabad:- RAMOJI FILM CITY A sprawling campus with nicely laid lawns and natural hillocks has been developed into a filmshooting locale.Artificial statues--replica of world ... more
