A Slice of Life in the Old City of Hyderabad: Random Captures

By Rashmi Gopal Rao

The charm of the old city in Hyderabad is truly inimitable; the crowded markets, heritage buildings and the hustle bustle of the place never cease to fascinate me.

While I have posted earlier about this amazing place which includes the iconic Charminar, below are some more captures that I took on a recent visit to the city.  Here’s a glimpse of “a day in the life” of the old city.

Shopping and activity at its peak! A place for the entire family After stone bangles, pearls are the next most popular item in shopping

Items of worship and religious books galore!

Do not miss the little shops selling all kinds of perfumes, attars and henna cones. Flowers and coconuts for offering

Red berries for a quick snack!

Fruits in all forms! Oodles of old world charm!
