Tasting the non-vegetarian cuisine of Hyderabad

The Hyderabad city was once ruled by the Nizams and Mughals, and the towering architectural marvels bear testimony to a long-lost era. The ever growing and glowing city of history and art has a fair share of beautiful markets and old restaurants to offer as well. The ever-helpful local people also make it one of the most visited places in India. As the capital of the newest state in India which is Telangana, Hyderabad has some really good food that you must try out. While this strictly does not fall under sightseeing, exploring Hyderabad would be incomplete without understanding its relationship with food. Very few places in the world can claim their fame for one particular food item. Hyderabad is one of those few places and is synonymous with Biryani – a mix of rice and meat cooked with spices. As you also learn that a Hyderabadi will debate about two things other than Biryani – A cup of Irani chai and Haleem. Sightseeing is one aspect of Hyderabad but your tour to Hyderabad is not complete without tasting the best of Biryani, Haleem and Irani chai. Food is part of the cultural ethos of Hyderabad and there is more to food here than simply satisfying the pangs of hunger.

This city has a history that is over 400-years old and it takes pride in delivering you an impressive medley of sights, sounds, colours and flavours. Make sure to plan in advance and book from a wide array of hotels, to suit your taste and budget.

Ishika Jain Updated: Sep 09, 2024 7:01 PM IST

Having a rich history, vibrant culture and delicious cuisine is not all that characterizes Hyderabad; there are equally lots of natural resources in this city. Hidden within the crowded cityscape are rivers that offer an amazing escape from the urban rush. Do not miss when you visit Hyderabad if you love nature or photography or tranquility. Here is a guide of the top most beautiful rivers to go to when in the city.

1. Musi River

Musi River which is often referred to as the lifeline of hyderabad has great historical and cultural significance. It flows through the heart of the City dividing it into two halves, originating from Anantagiri Hills in Vikarabad district. Urbanization has resulted in loss of its clean environment but there have been attempts to restore its glory. Walking across Necklace Road along the Music provides stunning views of both the river and City skyline. Boating facilities have also been available for closer look at the river by visitors.

2.Hussain Sagar Lake

As technically a man-made lake Hussain sagar deserves mention for being fed by Musi River alone besides its beauty and importance in the town's history . Built during Ibrahim Quli Qutb Shah's reign, this popular water body houses an impressive statue of Lord Buddha on Gibraltar Rock right middle of it. While navigating across this lake one can enjoy viewing Hyderabad from boats up close.The place offers quiet surroundings for taking evening walks or going on romantic boat rides.

3.Dindi River

Located somewhere on the outskirts, just off Hyderabad is Dindi River that lies amidst lush greenery . This river which remains unknown makes it appear like Hyde's secret hideout with all its busyness.Surrounded by palm groves and rice paddies, Dindi makes an ideal destination for any nature lover or camera clicker. Such visitors may even hire coracles to paddle around or just enjoy the sights of running water and tweets of birds at the riverbank. It is also near Dindi Reservoir which has fishing and bird watching spots.

4.Manjeera River

The Manjeera River, on the northern periphery of Hyderabad, is a beautiful sight especially when it swells during monsoons . From Nallamala Hills it gently curves across attractive sceneries that make its banks calm places to be. In peak monsoon seasons, adventure enthusiasts are able to engage in thrilling river rafting while those who like nature can explore various plant and animal species that thrive along this river. While Manjeera Dam created the reservoir by the same name another attraction would be visiting for its beauty and leisure activities offered there.

5.Godavari River

It is important to mention that even though the Godavari River is not directly located in Hyderabad, it can easily be reached from the city and therefore deserves a place in this list due to its massive size and importance. The Godavari is held in awe as one of the sacred rivers of India; as such, it meanders through the Bhadrachalam town which gives perfect views of green hills and forests around it. There is nothing like boating on this river as one has an opportunity to see how great this river can become from close quarters while at the same time preserving the natural beauty of these surroundings. Its scenic attractiveness is further enhanced by lush green islands that dot it, thus attracting nature lovers and those seeking for spiritual nourishment.

On a whole, Hyderabad's rivers are an amalgamation of nature's bounty, cultural heritage, and recreational opportunities. If you want peace amidst nature or love water-based thrillers, discover these rivers. Each waterway possesses its own unique charm waiting to be unlocked ranging from historical Musi River to picturesque Dindi River. Subsequently, do not ignore those moments when you will be walking along lovely riverside areas during your stay at Hyderabad just enjoying calmness over there.
