Elsewhere in Telangana
Not in Warangal — these are in other towns across the state.
Attraction
Hyderabad (Charminar & Golconda)
Built in 1591 at the centre of the old city, with a minaret at each corner. You can climb one — a hundred and forty-nine steps up a tight spiral — and the view over Laad Bazaar is the reason to. Published heights for the minarets disagree depending on whether they are measured from the plinth, so ignore the numbers and look up.
Attraction
The vast historic prayer hall built partly with bricks from Mecca.
Attraction
The reconstructed core inner sanctum housing the unique terrifying seated form of the Goddess, wrapped by historic stone icons.
Attraction
Hyderabad (Charminar & Golconda)
A medieval granite fortress on a hill, with royal palace ruins, deep weapon vaults and an acoustic system that carried clapped signals across it.
Attraction
A group of nine 7th-century stone temples exhibiting northern Rekha-Nagara architectural spires and complex structural gate reliefs.
Market
Hyderabad (Charminar & Golconda)
The historic old city bazaar alley flanking the Charminar, world-famed for authentic hand-crafted stone lacquer bangles and local pearls.
