The Golconda Fort is one of the most wonderful monuments, located 11 km. from Hyderabad, and the capital of Andhra Pradesh. The visit to the Golconda fort was spectacular; the Sound and Light show was very informative and brilliantly presented. The fort stands on an isolated granite hill. Three granite walls encircle the fort. There are eight gates in the outer wall. The unique feature of the fort is the deflection of sound. The fort has important monuments such as Diwan’s Palace, Jamay Masjid, Royal Palace, Baradari, Naya Quilla and Charminar. Golconda is famous in the world for its Kohinoor Diamond which weighs 106 carats. The trip to the Sudhcar museum The cars displayed at the museum were in all shapes and sizes and a sight to behold .The Sudha Cars Museum had many different types of cars, bikes, cycles, buses displayed which belonged to different eras and periods There was a football car, basketball car, brinjal car, golf car, joystick bike and many more. It was very interesting and fascinating experience. The Snow world was fantastic! The Snow world was a wonderland of sheer delight as all of us came down sledging down the white, snow covered slopes while temperatures soared outside.
