History : |
Wedding Gifts to Hyderabad |
Situated
on the Deccan Plateau, Hyderabad has an
average elevation of about 500 metres above
sea level (1640 feet). Most of the area has a
rocky terrain. There is a lot of cultivation
in the surrounding areas with paddy fields and
other crops which are grown.
The original city of Hyderabad was founded on
the banks of river Musi. Now known as the
historic "Old City", home to the Charminar and
Mecca Masjid, it lies on the southern bank of
the river. The city center saw a shift to the
north of the river, with the construction of
many government buildings and landmarks there,
especially south of the Husain Sagar lake. The
rapid growth of the city, along with the
growth of Secunderabad and neighboring
municipalities has resulted in a large and
populous metropolitan area.
Hyderabad has a moderate wet and dry climate,
with hot summers from March to June, the wet
monsoon season from July to October and cold
dry winters from November to February. Annual
precipitation is around 79 cm. Except for the
summers, the city enjoys a moderate and
pleasant climate. Temperatures range from a
lowest minimum of 12 Deg C in winter to 41 Deg
C in Summer. |

Like many Indian cities, Hyderabad has
witnessed a remarkable growth in the real

information-technology-driven boom in the
1990s and the retail industry growth over the
last few years which have spurred hectic
commercial activity. A number of mega malls
have come up or are being built in the city.
Real Estate demand in the suburban and rural
areas surrounding Hyderabad has gone up
exponentially leading to reckless increase in
prices over the past few years.

multiple CBDs(Central Business district)
spread across the city. Major
