An unusual looking building (left) in a Muslim section next to the fort. Also, a not great view of the city from Jubilee Hills, a richer section where you see separate homes.
Muslims settled Hyderabad in 1591 and Golcondo Fort is one of their most famous and significant historically. Some claim that the fort itself is 2000 years old. The city of Hyderabad expanded eastward from the fort because water was so scarce and so it seems a bit separated from Hyderabad at the present. The palm tree marks the entrance if you want to go in and see the detail. We just drove around it on our way back from a project site.
Took these pix because it was such a fancy-looking school out in the country. The students were older and dressed with ties and looked as if they had a little money.

These are the kind of pictures they should use on the Hyderabad Tourism site. Those are beautiful.
