Hyderabad has painted all over changing lifestyle and landscape. Opel Astras and Maruti Zens have shoved aside clip-clopping horse-drawn carriages. Elegantly tiled houses, giant archways and many-windowed homes no longer dot the skyline. Flyovers criss-cross busy intersections. The laid-back metropolis is now a science city. Hyderabad’s changing fast… Curiously, long time residents insist Hyderabad is still not a "big city" at all. Thus it retains the pleasant pace and unhurried charm of a provincial town, while slowly acquiring the benefits of a metropolis.

This 400-year-old bustling city with a mix of varied cultures, magnificent monuments and mansions (beautiful edifices built in the medieval, moghul and colonial styles) speak the language of glory of the past heritage, definitely deserves a look around.

There is an old tale that says "those who drink the water from the gandipet lake, one of hyderabad's main source of drinking water, will always return to this city second time."

Hyderabad represents a perfect blend of old world charm and modern day charisma.
People of the Twin Cities are proud of the history and heritage, their unique blend of cultures, the relaxed pace of life, and lifestyle, their cuisine.
