Hyderabad is also home to the iconic Charminar (seen in the image), a tower of four minarets, each of them facing a different street.

In the 1700s, Nizam Ālī, the ruler of Hyderabad, accepted British control. Consequently, a British Resident and a subsidiary force of British troops were installed in the state. Post-independence from the British, the state joined the Indian union in 1948.

Modern Hyderabad blends the old and the new with ease – Cyberabad and its tech giants and Jubilee Hills and its film stars happily coexist with the bazaars and crowded streets of the Old City.
