Today we had plans to visit old city as well as couple of places well-know like the Hyderabad Zoo and few other places around.
Hyderabad Zoo
We left the hotel after breakfast and were on our way to Zoo. From the hotel the Zoo is around 14 kms and it would take around 45mins to 60mins in car as one has to travel through old city roads which are congested. We booked our tickets at the entrance and it cost us INR 1400 together for 3 people. Since the Zoo is spread in 18 acres, it would be advised that you book the battery operated cars which would leave you at designated animal spots. So we first started with viewing animals which were in the large enclosures and paddock.
Post the safari was done, the driver dropped us on the other side of the safari which helps you to complete the other end of the zoo.
Back to the animal enclosures & paddocks
Post that we took a toy train ride which takes us across the zoo and post that we ended our visit. This was my 2nd visit at the zoo. Last when I visited I was a teenager and had come with my parents and after so many years probably 2 decades came with my family.
Sudha Car Museum
This is a interesting place to visit, this is close to the Zoo and once you visit the zoo, one can also visit this place. This person has created a world record of creating different and weird cars. This place was also being a part of Ripley's Believe it or Not. This will cost you INR 150 for adults and INR 120 for children. This is worth it if you are a fan of cars and interested in looking at weird stuff.
Day 3 evening at Lumbini Park & Lake Hussain Sagar
Post visiting Sudha's Museum we made it back to the hotel as we wanted to freshen up and also change and it took us almost the entire day for these 2 locations. We started back to hotel at 5.30pm IST and went through the old city traffic again.
We reached Lumbini Park at 8pm IST, we took a auto to roam around as it was already late we also had to have dinner.
We took a boat ride at the park and visited the Buddha Statue in Hussain Sagar lake and spend some time there clicking pics.
Post visiting the Lumbini Park we rushed back to the Hotel to use our car and then go to dinner to a nearby place. We did not record any pics then as we were running from one place to other and that is how our Day 3 ended.
