On activity day in April we went to Golconda Fort, one of India's most famous built by Muslims, some say in the 1500s. To climb to the top is 280 or 360 steps or some humongous number. Detours dot the way but we saw plenty just sticking to the stairs. One dungeon area that we went through was filled with bats so I wasn't very interested in exploring other such areas.
This is the top. We went inside and climbed some stairs but outside is where we took the pictures of us and other landscapes, including Hyderabad. It was hot and we did our usual sweating.
I lost several pictures trying to move these together but guess you get the idea. It's huge. A five mile wall surrounds it. We're glad we went but as with most things, once is enough for the non-adventurous duo.

Wow! That is really cool! What did they build the forts for? You guys look great and can't tell that you're sweating. And I'm pretty sure you were holding hands in that picture! Love it!
Braden and I are sitting here looking at your pictures and he wants to see more pictures of you on your mission. I am impressed with how well the building has stood the test of time. You guys look great, and I'm with Betina...liking the affection:)
I loved all the interesting architecture.
