Saturday in Hyderabad

I went out and about in Hyderabad today with Ameer, one of the DST associates here. He will be leading the QA's in the new TRAC group. We visited a Hindu temple, drank tea at one of the most famous tea shops in town, shopped for bangles, and ate kebabs. A good day!

Inside the temple grounds.


The building is very impressive with wonderful carvings.


Very intricate craftsmanship.

After the temple visit, we went to have tea at one of the most famous tea shops in town. (Hyderabad is famous for its tea.) The place is so popular you can only order the tea at the counter and stand out in front sipping your tea. It WAS good. Very creamy and sweet, served in a very small plastic cup. Note the name of the shop.

The competition located directly across the street, stole their name!!!

We headed back to the markets located around Charminar, the huge monument in the center of the city.
