Day 1: One-Day Trip to Bidar from Hyderabad
Your journey begins with a pickup from your hotel in Hyderabad, followed by a scenic drive to the hilltop city of Bidar, located in the northeastern part of Karnataka. As you approach Bidar, you'll notice a change in landscape and climate, signaling your arrival at this historically rich destination.
Your first stop is Bidar Fort, an architectural marvel with Persian influences, known for its impressive quadrangular layout. The fort is surrounded by three miles of walls, 37 bastions, and a triple moat. Inside the fort complex, you'll find an old city filled with monuments and structures from the Bahmani Sultanate era. Explore significant sites such as Gagan Mahal, Rangin Mahal, and Tarkash Mahal, along with the Solah Khamba Mosque. This mosque, supported by 16 pillars, features clerestory windows with intricate perforated screens in geometric patterns typical of Deccan architecture.
Rangin Mahal, one of the best-preserved structures within the fort, showcases a stunning blend of Hindu and Muslim architectural styles. The palace is renowned for its vibrant colored tiles, intricate wood carvings, and delicate pearl inlay work. Verses carved throughout the palace express admiration for the king and the throne.
Within the fort, you'll also find the Takhat Mahal, where rulers once addressed private audiences, and Tarkash Mahal, a palace built for the Turkish wife of a Bahmani Sultan. The royal kitchens and baths offer glimpses into the opulent lifestyle of a bygone era.
Next, visit the Madrasa of Mahmud Gawan, an ancient residential university modeled after the Madrasa of Khorasan. While unadorned on the outside, the interior is decorated with beautiful Persian tiles. You'll also explore the historic Karez water system, a network of underground canals designed to tap into groundwater and transport it to the settlement, ending in surface canals and pools used for various purposes.
Before returning to Hyderabad, you'll have the opportunity to shop for Bidri ware, a unique metal handicraft developed in Bidar in the 14th century. This exquisite art form features metal articles adorned with floral and geometric designs inlaid with silver wire. After a day of exploring Bidar's rich history and culture, you'll be driven back to your hotel in Hyderabad.
