Hyderabad is the capital city of Andhra Pradesh and the fifth largest city of India.is famous as the former seat of the fabulously wealthy nizams of Hyderabad. Built on the banks of the river Musi, and surrounded by huge prehistoric rock formations like petrified, gray elephants, Hyderabad is a blend of the fairy tale and earthy, a pot pouri of old and new. The domed and minaretted monuments of the Qutub Shahi and Asaf Jha nobility and cheek by jowl with massive grass and concrete high-rises. Banjaran gypsies in swinging skirts and silver ornaments and black-veiled burqua- swathed women dressed in chooridars or jeans. The hilltop pleasure garden where noblemen took their ease now boasts of a brand new observatory. Like Bijapur in neighboring Karnataka state, Hyderabad is and important center of Islamic culture and is central India's counterpart to the Mughal splendour of the northern cities of Delhi, Agra and Fatehpur sikri.
