Hyderabad known as the Pearl city, is the capital of Telangana state.
It's a huge, bustling, and a beautiful place to live. I have lived here all my life and I can't living anywhere else! It has a rich culture, the city's history is a mix of Telugu, Hindi, and Urdu, having its own sounds and tones.
It's famous for its landmarks such as Golconda Fort, Charminar, Taj Falaknuma Palace, Chilkur Balaji Temple, Hussain Sagar Lake, Birla Mandir, Ramoji Film City, Salar Jung Museum and a major centre for the IT (Information Technology) industry. It's a also well-known for its food (Hyderabad Biryani), of course!
Traffic can be an issue in the city centre, particularly in the rainy days, but public transport is good. Hyderabad is almost unrecognisable compared to twenty or thirty years ago. The city has expanded so much, both physically and economically. It's amazing when you see old photos of the city; things are so different now!
