 Charminar
The most popular landmark in Hyderabad is the Charminar, a magnificent and striking historical monument with four graceful minarets. Built more than 400 years ago, its central structure soars to a height of 180 feet. Most of the fabled bazaars of Hyderabad are located around the Charminar. The Charminar was built by Sultan Mohd. Quli Qutub Shah, as a symbol of good fortune, to ward off adversity from the beautiful Pearl City... and it stands resplendent today... as true testimony to the bygone glory !Below are the Photos of Charminar of Hyderabad, which I captured personally. I hope you will like it. All images on HyderabadPlanet.com are copyrighted, so please don't copy or misuse.
