| About Hyderabad Tourism |
Once India's biggest and richest princely state, Hyderabad is known for its courtly speech and manners, historic monuments and a distinct cuisine. Today, Hyderabad is India's fifth-largest city, is home to more than 6 million people, and is one of India's
leading centres of Information Technology. Situated on the Deccan
Plateau at a height of 1,776ft, it serves, along with its twin
Secunderabad, as the capital of the southern state of Andhra Pradesh. Over 400 years old, the city has been a melting pot of influences - northern and southern, Hindu and Muslim - so that 'Hyderabadi' culture is markedly different from 'Andhra' culture. Founded in 1591 by Muhammad Quli Qutb Shah, the fifth sovereign of the Qutb Shahi dynasty, Hyderabad was built on the banks of the Musi River in a grid format with the help of Iranian architects |

 Manisha, Hyderabad | 23rd November 2007
Suryalanka....nearest beach from Hyderabad
| Overview of the destinationA quite, hidden pristine clean beach on the east coast..the closest to Hyderabad at less than 400kms away is Suryalanka. Not many people know of Food, sight-seeing and shopping This is definitely not for the ones looking for the typical touristy thing or a shoppers paradise. There is only the resort with basic good Activities & things to do Sun, sand and sea!!!! Play in the waves, swim if you dare, make sand castles, bury your friends under dunes of sand, get a tan, Travel tips, How to reach, travel warnings etc. Reach Guntur by either road or rail; Suryalanka is about 40 kms from there. The railhead is Bapatla and the beach is 7 kms from | dhanaraj, Bangalore | 8th March 2007
