It is a great idea! Hyderabad is a culture-rich place and a long history, you will enjoy going around in Hyderabad and nearby places. If you have a few days at your disposal, you can also consider visiting a few other cities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few places that are must-see are the following, you can book a cab (your hotel will help you get them booked) for full day and they will take you around, most places will also have a guide, or you can take a guide with you: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Charminar<\/a> – extremely crowded since it is very popular and in the heart of the city. Must-visit if you want to see city culture up close and buy some local stuff, like bangles, pearls, dresses, etc. Plan for 3-4 hours at the minimum. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Golconda fort<\/a> – A fort with a rich history. Light and sound show in the evening is great to watch to know about the history. Plan for evening visit for 2-3 hours and be ready for a short hike<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Chowmahalla Palace<\/a> – A palace to behold! <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Salar Jung Museum<\/a> – One of the largest museums of the world. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Statue of equality<\/a> – A new addition to Hyderabad, worth visiting if you are interested in religious aspects of Indian culture. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    We will post some details about how and where to get guides and tour operators in a few days. In the meantime, if you have specific questions around this, please send a mail to help@comped.acm.org<\/a>. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t
