Charminar means Four Towers or Minarets and was built in 1591 by Mohammed Quli Qutub Shah of the Qutub Shahi dynasty. The Charminar is an impressive monument - the 50 m high minarets offer a view that is blended with antiquity and modernity displaying its ancient nooks and crannies that are still filled with vibrancy and teeming with life.
