Vaanam Bhoomi Celebration of Love – working stills

Hyderabad Old CITYROCKZ

Hordes of haleem lovers, ensure they schedule a trip to Hyderabad in the month of Ramzan just so that they don’t miss on the traditional treats!

Legend has it that the Nizam’s kitchen boasted of 49 types of biryani! Fish, quail, shrimp, deer, duck, rabbit… the varieties went on. There was a vegetarian version as well served in the Nizam’s court. What the hotels of Hyderabad serve today may pale in comparison, but the lure of lip-smacking biryani and haleem is something that is bringing people from far and wide to descend to the city during the Ramzan season.

Charminar is often called as “The Arc de triomphe of the East”. It is considered as the legendary masterpiece of Qutub Shahi’s. This beautiful structure derives its name from four intricately carved minarets, The four graceful minarets literally meaning ‘Four Minars’, soar to a height of 48.7m each, above the ground. It is located amidst the colourful shops of Lad Bazaar with its glittering traditional bangles in the old city.
