today was our first SUNDAY in Hyderabad... so we have plan something for today... roughly around 2pm... we gather up and take Atu to the nearest train station which is... HitecCity Station... we bought our ticket with just only INS 3... which is so cheap for us... the train will arrive in HitecCity Station on 3.15pm... so we kinda walk around the Station to search for something special... and we manage to took some photos... on 3.17pm... the train arrive and we get into the first class compartment... when the conductor come n check our ticket... he actually told us the ticket we buy is normal compartment not the 1st class... so on the next station... we have to change compartment.. around 4pm... we arrive at the Hyderabad Station which is in Hederabad Old Town...

we walk around at the city and than we bough our return 1st class ticket which is INR72 in case the que get long in the night... after that... we took Atu to our destination, Charminar... a historical building in India... for more info Charminar.. plz search the website... somehow the Atu guy become our tour guide and translater... when we arrive at Charminar... we pay entrance fee... INS 100 per tourist... INS 25 per local... after paying for our entrance.. we tour around the building and manage to get some nice shot of the busy streets from top of it... and there is a security guard come over and talk with us... he even roughly tour us around the building and talk about the history of this Charminar... even though he is a security... but he know his country history so well.. i dont think i can tell that much of history things of my own country to tourist visiting Malaysia like him... he was such a nice person...

After Charminar... we were brough to a Pearl Shop... btw... Hyderabad most famous item is PEARL... especially BLACK PEARL... in the shop... we manage to buy some pearl with our cash... everyone of us was thinking... "If only I bring more cash today..." the pearl there was way too cheap... according to RnH ppl... they say Pearl here was cheap because it was still not that refine as what we saw in the Expensive shop... besides... Hyderabad produce more Pearl than any other places... I manage to bought some and planning to make it as a present to someone... which i cant say it here... coz i kinda like wanna surprise them... n i really hope she n others like it...
after the Pearl shop... it was already around 7pm... so we decided to head home... and again... we took train to get back to HighTec City and Atu to Malaysian Township... i guess thats all for the day... ^^
ps: for any more detail... u can accquire from me personally...
