Living in a single place over a long period of time has its negative effects, one of it being monotony. We tend to get bored with a certain place after having spent a considerable amount of time there, but we just can't leave our entire life behind and settle in a new interesting place right. Well one way to break the monotony is a weekend getaway to a nearby place, the best way to re energize our self and return back to our life with new vigour.
Having lived in Hyderabad for a considerable amount of time we were getting a little bored of the humdrum life that the city was offering so we organized one such weekend escape from Hyderabad to Nalgonda an offbeat destination away from the various tourist traps. Nalgonda is a unique little town about 100 km from Hyderabad famous for its forts, parks and Dam. The relaxing and laid back lifestyle away from the stresses of city life is just what the doctor had ordered.
Nalgonda offers several places wherein you can enjoy a hearty meal and a comfortable stay that too at a reasonable price. There are also several tourist destinations in and around the town that makes for an interesting sightseeing activity. Some of the prominent attractions are the two hills in the town on top which a Dargah (Lateef Saheb dargah) stands, there is another hill named Kapurala gutta that provide excellent trekking opportunity, Rajiv Park and Municipal Park, Yadagiri Gutta, Nagarjuna Sagar, Bhuvanangiri Fort, Mattapalli, Vaadapalli and much more.
