Do not miss the famous seasonal sweet "Haleem" in the famous restaurants around the Charminar. Plan to spend at least two hours here.
On your second day, travel to Golconda Fort, an architectural masterpiece located 400ft above the city of Hyderabad. This fort once served as a hub for diamond trade and is now a popular tourist attraction featuring fascinating ruins, intricate carvings, and a commanding view of the city. The remarkable engineering design of the fort is worth exploring, especially the acoustic effects that tell of invaders' arrival. Take a guided tour to learn about Golconda's intriguing history, spend around two hours to explore every nook and corner of this hidden wonder.
On the last day, start at the Salarjung Museum, one of the most extensive private collections of art in the world. The museum is home to a diverse range of artifacts from all over the world, including Persian carpets, Mughal miniature paintings, and rare sculptures. Plan to spend at least two hours and travel to Ramoji Film City after. It is located on the outskirts of Hyderabad, one of the world's largest film cities built on 2,000 acres. Spend a few hours here to experience different movie-related adventures. Catch a live Bollywood-style show at Eureka, or visit the exotic gardens, and do not forget to admire the replica of famous monuments that the city portrays. Enjoy the spirit of Hyderabad and finish your trip with joyful moments.
Hyderabad is a city with diverse architecture, history, and culture, but three days are not enough to experience all of them truly. You can extend your stay to enjoy night walks at Necklace Road, stroll in the relaxing parks, or taste authentic cuisine like 'Hyderabadi Biryani' and 'Double Ka Meetha.' If you have lesser time, you can skip the Salarjung Museum or Ramoji Film City or both and try the local street food. Don't forget to carry comfortable shoes and clothes as Hyderabad is a hot and humid city throughout the year. Always navigate with the help of the maps available locally or online. Enjoy your trip!!!
