At Golconda Fort, Hyderabad

Our third and final landmark for a photo shoot session in Hyderabad was Golconda Fort, a National Heritage Monument, tucked in the outskirts of Hyderabad.

This historic fort, which was built by many rulers and destroyed by Aurangzeb in the 16th century is an amazing place to explore.

Unfortunately, the Superdrive Nanos did not get the opportunity to go inside the fort, but got enough opportunity to admire the perimeter of this vast fort and in return got admired by hordes of people.

Photo Shoot at Birla Mandir, Hyderabad

The Birlas have done a great job of building temples and religious places across India. Most of them are in extremely picturesque locations.

In this case at Hyderabad, the Birla Temple is situated atop a hill and offers brilliant views of the city.

The temple in itself is made out of White Marble and is a treat to the eye.

This was our second landmark location in Hyderabad for a photo shoot.

Nano Superdrive at Charminar, Hyderabad

When you are at the Land of the Nizams, what better place to be at than Charminar, the pride of Hyderabad.

A bustling part of the city revolves round Charminar. It is possibly one of the busiest parts of Hyderabad.

And this is where the Superdrive Nanos stopped for their first landmark shoot.

It was tough for us to make it a perfect photo shoot as this part of town sees heavy traffic, but we managed somehow.

But, irrespective of the traffic, this place has got a lot of culture and history attached to it.
