Host City: Hyderabad, India

India is a country in South Asia. It is the seventh - largest country by area, the second - most populous country, and the most populous democracy in the world. Apart from its many religions and sects, India is home to innumerable castes and tribes, as well as to more than a dozen major and hundreds of minor linguistic groups from several language families unrelated to one another.

Hyderabad is the capital and largest city of the Indian state of Telangana and de jure capital of Andhra Pradesh. Until 19th century Hyderabad was known for pearl industry and nicknamed as the "City of Pearls" Hyderabad is a global center of information technology, for which it is known as Cyberabad (Cyber City) Hyderabadi Biryani is one of the most popular dishes of the city. It is distinctly different from other variations of the Biryani, originating from the kitchens of the Nizams of Hyderabad. Amazon has opened its biggest campus in the world in Hyderabad.

Hyderabad Attractions

Golconda Fort

A towering 11th-century citadel with a turbulent past, Golconda (meaning ‘round hill’) is admired for its unique architecture, gardens, palaces, military fortifications, magical acoustic system, ingenious water supply system, the famous “Rahban” cannon and an array of other attractions. Originally built by Kakatiyas in 1100 and later fortified by other invaders, Golconda Fort, now in ruins, represents a high point in Hyderabad’s history and is a must-visit archaeological treasure of India. Certainly one of the best tourist attractions in Hyderabad.

Charminar

Charminar in Hyderabad, which attracts a large number of tourists every year, was constructed in 1591 by Mohammed Quli Qutub Shah to mark an end to the plague in the city. This grand structure, which is known as the "The Arc de Triomphe of the East", derived its name from the four minarets. This magnificent legendary monument of the Qutub Shahs looks even more stunning in the evening lights. The structure has gained great importance as it is the centre of all the bustling activities in Hyderabad now. Located in the midst of Laad bazaar, which is a shopping hub famous for glittering bangles, Charminar is always flocked by tourists.

Buddha Monolith

Hyderabad is home to the world’s tallest Buddha Monolith erected on Gibraltar Rock in the middle of Lake Hussain Sagar. It is made of solid granite rock found in the nearby mountains and was sanctified by the Dalai Lama in 2006. It is close to the Lakdi Ka Pul metro station and the best time to visit is in the evening when the statue is lit up in beautiful colours.
