by alycat
The Hyderabad US consulate is being set up in Hyderabad and will start operations from December 2008.
This temporary consulate office will be located at the Paigah Palace, Begumpet, a heritage building of the Nizam period, which presently houses Hyderabad Urban Development Authority Office. The State government has allotted land at Madhapur, the city's IT hub, where permanent campus would come up later.
It will be fourth consulate in India after Mumbai, Kolkata and Chennai.

Cyberabad!
by Donna_in_India
Many people would not find this interesting or a "thing to do", but since we are in the IT business my husband and I wanted to check out the area known as Hi-Tech City/Cyberabad. We have watched all the companies coming into the different cities in India for the past 5+ years. All of this has led to all kinds of growth, building, traffic, etc. Some of it good, some of it not so good. We were pretty surprised at all the companies in Hyderabad, as well as all of the buildings coming up - both commercial - and residential to house all the techies.

They are building several more hotels in the area and are also building a new road to the (great, new) airport to connect it directly to the area without the need to travel through the "city".
