Hyderabad

Hyderabad's name translates literally as 'Lion City', referencing Ali's valour in battle.

The city was founded in 1768 over a limestone ridge known as Ganjo Takkar, or 'Bald Hill.'

Hyderabad produces almost all of the ornamental glass bangles in Pakistan.

Hyderabad's local architectural patterns include homes with wind-catchers that direct cool breezes into living quarters.

The Niaz Stadium of Hyderabad is known for Pakistani bowler Jalal-ud-Din's hat-trick, the first ever in a one-day match.
