Hyderabad
A Diamond Is Forever
Stories
of Hyderabad’s poetic past weave amid strings of programming code in this
southeastern India city that was home to one of the richest men in the world,
Mir Osman Ali Khan, the last ruling Nizam of Hyderabad. Now a seedbed for many
global IT brands, Cyberabad (as it’s dubbed) is where you can hear the
muezzin’s call above the traffic din generated by aging Urdu scholars and young
software engineers alike. Here, ancient boulders guard the peripheries of
HITEC City, while new rooftop bars hem in lakes and gardens. The opulent Taj
Falaknuma Palace hotel perches atop a hill overlooking the Old City, where
Irani cafés thrive alongside fifth-generation pearl merchants and the finest
fountain pen makers. Prone to exaggeration, the Hyderabadis’ conversations
within these cafés often linger over three cups of chai and four hours.

A good
Muslim ruler was expected to be an expert with the pen as well as the sword;
the city’s founder, Mohammed Quli Qutb Shah, is credited with the first
published anthology of Urdu poetry. The later ruling dynasty, the Nizams,
provided patronage to poets within their court. Attend a mushaira (poetry
symposium) for a good introduction to the city’s literary legacy. There’s also
the Hyderabad Literary Festival in January, followed by February’s Deccan
Festival, during which the most passionate performances involve qawwali,
an 800-year-old form of Sufi music. Another evocative setting to witness
qawwali is Chowmahalla Palace, the recently restored residence of the Nizams.
“Dakhan—Hyderabad—is the diamond, the world is the ring,” says historian
Narendra Luther, quoting the court poet Mulla Vajahi. “The ring’s splendor lies
in the diamond.”
