Hyderabad? No! Hyderagood!

Continuing onward and upward, into the interior, we whizzed to Hyderabad from Pondicherry Airport on Spice Jet’s finest.

Another fairly large city, but with some hidden gems.

First day’s walk to the Laad Bazaar.

We found a great slum area that night, that turned into our go-to spot, and met lots of the locals. Even being invited in for a chicken supper. Fabulous, engaging people here and as we were to discover some phenomenal street art…

It was seeing a Pan shop here that got me snapping to get some of these great little booths (and booth owners and customers) down on film…

Seeking a bit of peace and quiet the next day we headed off to Qutub Shahi Tombs

Back to the (so-called) slums the next day to see them in the daylight was a revelation….great art, sunshine and COLOUR!!!

Only a few days here, as we’d planned a trip to the Mountains of Orissa and the small town of Koraput and the local hill-tribes in this rarely-visited area.
