Getaway Hyderabad

Life at Hyderabad is unlike any other metro in India. It is relaxed, calm, and enjoyble. But, come the weekend and you’ve nothing to do. All weekend getaways are an overnight journey meaning that you’ll kill one night or one day in commute alone.

Me and my wife were looking forward to a getaway and decided to drive to this Rajasthani Resort called Dhola-Ri-Dhani. On our way to the resort we felt like driving a bit more so we took the highway. I had heard about Shamirpet lake from a friend and thought it is on the same highway so why not visit it. We drove 10 kms further only to find that Shamirpet is on some other highway. We asked around and found a bad patch of road which leads to Shamirpet thanks to a friendly Cabbie.

We took it and hit Shamirmet after driving for about 15 kms. And boy, it was worth it.

Shamirpet lake is beautiful, very appealing, and a massive water body. The rocks that surround the lake makes it look even more beautiful. See it for yourself.

Finally, a spot where you can go sit back, relax, enjoy near Hyderabad. The best part is that there are 5-6 dhabas which serve great North Indian food as well. And if you are a true blue Hyderabadi they have great Biryani, and Dosas too.

Now that we’ve been there once, we’ll definitely will hit the spot once more. And then, search for another weekend spot.
