Yeah it was nice meeting you, @AslamMo and other passionate local guides and have a walk across Chowmohalla Palace; a museum where the history is being captured and shown in the present. Everything including the chandeliers, sofa set, beds and kitchen appliances are kept as it is and preserved for visitors. Do you know this place also won a UNESCO well preserved sites in 2010?

Have a visit to experience the royal lifestyle of the Nawabs (rulers of Hyderabad). It’s pretty awesome.
