Hussain Sagar: Lake Lustre

360° Panoramic Views 1

The two-year-old Necklace Road and the Tank Bund are great spectacles in the night and turn into rendezvous for relaxation and romance. The Necklace Road is now much sought after by trade and industry for holding consumer melas and by the government to stage frequent cultural shows and programmes open to public. Laser film shows on aqua screen are an additional attraction. Two impressive gateways flank the Tank Bund, replicating the great Kakatiya and Vijayanagar architectural styles.

Flanked by the Hyderabad Boat Club in the south and the Secunderabad, Sailing Club in the north, Hussain Sagar becomes the annual venue for sailing events and regattas every year. One can see several rowboats and yachts gracefully navigating in the lake. But all this recreation and commercial activity is already telling on the purity and size of the lake. This will keep off the annual migratory birds from coming to the lake and the gardens around and deprive it of its pristine grandeur.
