Hussain Sagar Lake
Built on an 85 metre hillock, the Birla Temple stands in its pristine marble glory looking down on the Hussain Sagar Lake. The tour will start at the temple where you will witness one of the evening rituals. From the hillock, you will also get views of the imposing newly-built secretariat and the Ambedkar statue. You will then drive to Lumbini Park, one of the green spaces in the city next to the lake. The lake, built in 1562 is in the centre of the city and was the main source of water supply till the beginning of the last century. Take a boat ride to the middle of the lake and get a close up view of the magnificent Buddha statue which stands testimony to this region’s contribution to Buddhism. The tour will end at Paradise restaurant where you will enjoy the world’s most popular Hyderabadi Biryani.
