Day 3 (Apr-14) : Other things in Hyderabad



I am posting this link at 3:00 in the morning. Well I thought that Hyderabad would be quiet a boring place, but believe me I was completely wrong! We saw Charminar yesterday in noon. . Now, Charminar is a magnificent monument, but terribly crowded. We could not get any place to park so we left the car in front of the restaurant where we had our lunch and left the keys with security there in case they had to move the car and too an auto-rickshaw to go there. I did get an interesting shot of Charminar.  If you observe, in non of the photos the base of the building is visible. That is because of the crowd you would see there.

We also went to Salarjung museum, but, due to Ambedkar Jayanti, It was closed L

But the best thing I noticed today was a difference in Pallavi Bua. I don't know what change I saw, but somehow, I felt she was a bit different now. The fact that she is now a proper Bua for me rather than a Didi, is pretty difficult for me to digest, but on other hand, interesting too!

She showed us the Microsoft campus, but photography was not allowed there. I had never even imagined it to be such a big office with so many facilities! It was certainly very majestic by its sheer size. The landscaping etc could put some resorts to shame.

  2. What change are we talking about?! I think I have started looking old! :(
    Oh and btw, the "charm" of "Charm"inar is in the people and the adjoining shops and all too, not to mention the entanged wires. I have some shots of that place with the crowd, pigeons et al. I will mail them to you.
