Not a 'sweet' revival of past!
viveksrivastava 0 contribution Ranchi, India Nov 18, 2011
Well to be quite frank, I wasn't too happy with the dismal state of one of the most sought after archaeological site of Hyderabad. It desperately needs some makeover as the major portion of the place looks to fall sooner or later.
Hyderabad may have positioned itself as a major tourist hub but somewhere it is losing with its evidence of glorious past.
Apart from the G Fort everything was just PERFECT!This review is the subjective opinion of a TravelPod member and not of TravelPod.com.
