Charminar - Historical Monument of Hyderabad

I refer Charminar as a logo of Hyderabad city. Charminar, the edifice of the four minarets, is the legendary masterpiece of Qutb Shahis. The awesome rectangular structure was built upon four grand arches by Muhammad Quli Qutb Shah in 1590-91. Charminar is situated in the old city of Hyderabad and is surrounded by hundreds of shops. Lad bazaar the famous shopping place, Mecca Masjid, Chowmahallah palace and other popular monuments are just few distance away from Charminar. You have to face huge traffic on your way to reach Charminar from new city. Charminar today is synonymous with Hyderabad's old-world charm and beauty and connotes Qutb Shahi grandeur to tourists with its spiral stairways. You can go on top of the Charminar to view complete old city of Hyderabad.
