you are: In staff andhra-pradesh
Hyderabad - a city with more than two-million population, capital of state of Andhra Pradesh. To me this city and its inhabitants-straight, affable, wide at heart, located to frank confidential conversation was very much grew fond. Probably therefore in Hyderabad I had many friends whom always it would be desirable to see.
The city - actually, two cities - Hyderabad and Sekundarabad, merged in a single whole, - is extraordinary good. It is good the, I would tell, severe beauty. He has grown on a naked plateau, vzgorblennom stony ridges and boulders, on coast of the small river Musi, the left inflow of Krishna. The big work it was necessary to conduct here building - to find and clear away platforms, to break gardens and squares for which, as a rule, it is necessary to deliver the earth entirely.
I was in one house on Bandit heat-hill - new area of cottages and private residences of succeeding businessmen and the large officials, appeared on a naked abrupt hill. As one wall of the house the rock to which it was stuck served. Through boulders the ladder cut down in a monolith downwards went down. Before a house facade a tiny garden: the flower beds, two-three palm trees and all on the brought earth. Each house on Bandit heat-hill is not similar to another, but everyone is entered in a severe landscape and as though underlines its original beauty.
The City has been put in pawn in 1591 by Muslim governor Mohammad kuli kutb the Shah. And then there were cities much of the most impressing constructions. In a year of its basis on the occasion of the termination of epidemic of a plague was will erect Charms-minar. This fine building of zolotisto-brown tones is built in the form of a triumphal arch with a colonnade on the top floor and four minarets rising on 55 metres. From the top balconies of minarets the city is visible as on a palm. In a distance sparkle under always generous here the sun of a dome of the Main hospital, palace Salar Dzhuna, belokamennogo the Higher court. They, as well as many other things considerable buildings, are sustained in style of Muslim architecture. Their domes, the turrets made in the form of minarets, give to these buildings an elegant celebratory kind. Besides a Muslim city in architecture colonial European and modern styles have mixed up Old Indian, saratsinsky.
