Charminar

Charminar  Was constructed by Mahammed Quli Qutub Shah in 1591, as an end mark of plague epidemic . This famous monument has four huge minarets, each measuring 48.7 meters, decorated with carved lotus bugs and petals beautifully designed in line masonry. Inside the minarets are spiral stairways of 149 steps from whose top one gets a panoramic view of the city. Charminar is surrounded by glittering bazaars of famous Hyderabadi bangles, pearls and traditional wears.
