Top Tourist Attractions In Hyderabad
- By the fullhyd.com team
It is said that every person should have a list of at least 15 places that he will visit before he dies. Here are 12 that we feel should be part of everyone's list. (Oh, we're sure you can find 3 more from the rest of the world.)
BEST PLACES TO VISIT IN HYDERABAD

Golconda Fort
Where a shepherd boy once found a magic idol now stands a crumbling fort. Its mystery is coming apart now, but the Fort remains compelling.

Necklace Road
Modelled after the Queen's Necklace in Mumbai, the Necklace Road links Hyderabad to Secunderabad, and provides young lovers with an avenue (ha!) to express themselves.

Chowmahalla Palace
If it hasn't been in your itinerary till now, forget the traffic bit and show some dogged zeal now. The doors are open, so come and partake of the Shahi experience of being a Hyderabadi royal.

Where: Ask for Khilwat, Motigalli, and Himmatpura, Himmatpura

Where: 21-7-588, Kakarwadi, Gasi Bazar, Kala Pahad, In The Lane Opp Kamat Hotel, Adarshnagar (1.4 km)

Salarjung Museum (Tourist Spot)
The undisputed cock of the walk of not just Hyderabad but the entire continent, Salar Jung Museum is dwarfed only the reams of copy that have been written about it. Welcome to the long and short of history.

Where: 22-7-268, New Buildings, Near Estate Talkies, Afzalgunj (2.7 km)

What can you say about this 4-century-old mosque that has not been said before?

Where: Charminar (3.5 km)

Osman Sagar (Gandipet)
Generations of Hyderabadis swear by the digestive powers of Gandipet waters. Whether that's true or not, an evening by the waters, followed by the lovely drive back, makes for a great time.

Where: Gandipet (10.2 km)

Taramati Baradari
And if there's a concert on, don't miss it.

Where: Near Vasavi Engineering College, Ibrahimbagh, Gandipet Road, Gandipet

Mecca Masjid (Tourist Spot)
One of the largest mosques in the world, this took 8,000 masons and labourers, 77 years and 1,400 bullocks (!) to be completed. So do visit. And remember to sit on the stone seat.

Where: Near the Charminar, Charminar (4.1 km)

Quli Qutb Shahi Tombs
The mausolea of the 'Sultans of Golconda', and one of the most important tourist spots in the city. If you didn't come here on a school excursion, you probably didn't go to school.

Where: Golconda (7.3 km)
