Buddha on the Lake
An 18-metre Buddha in the middle of the lake, the Tank Bund promenade and boats from Lumbini Park. The city's number-one evening walk.
The lake that joins Hyderabad and Secunderabad: an eighteen-metre granite Buddha stands on a rock mid-water, reached by boats from Lumbini jetty. The Tank Bund esplanade is the city's evening promenade, lined with Telangana's heroes and its best breeze. This is where Hyderabad exhales after the bazaars.
