Gulzar Houz is a hidden gem in Hyderabad that offers a unique window into the city's rich and vibrant history. I recently visited this area and was blown away by the stunning architecture and serene ambiance. Located in the old city, Gulzar Houz is home to several historic monuments, including the magnificent Qutb Shahi Tombs. These tombs are the final resting place of the Qutb Shahi dynasty, and their intricate carvings and ornamental designs are a testament to the skill and artistry of the era. The area around Gulzar Houz is also home to several small cafes and restaurants that offer traditional Hyderabadi cuisine. I particularly enjoyed the mouth-watering biryani and kebabs at one of the local eateries. The ticket rate for visiting Gulzar Houz is quite reasonable, with an entry fee of Rs. 20 for Indian nationals and Rs. 100 for foreign nationals. Given the historical and cultural significance of the area, this price is more than fair and is well worth the experience. Overall, I would highly recommend a visit to Gulzar Houz for anyone interested in history, architecture, or culture. The area offers a unique glimpse into Hyderabad's past and is a wonderful place to spend an afternoon exploring the city's rich heritage.

Near #Charminar, local indian fashion market You used huge bargaining skill to negotiate MRP

Gulzar House is a bustling hub, steeped in history and pulsating with the energy of an iconic city. The heritage water fountain adds a touch of timeless elegance, creating a picturesque backdrop for this vibrant locale. The rush of activity reflects the heartbeat of the city, making it a must-visit destination for those seeking a genuine cultural experience.

The most historical place around Charminar and very narrow lanes with much more tight traffic. Every thing around Charminar is kind of chaotic and lots of street hawkers making the visit a very tiresome unforgettable experience.

Gulzar Houz is an old water tank in Hyderabad, built around the 16th century. It's called "Lake of Gardens" in English. This place has historical importance and was constructed during the Qutb Shahi period to store and distribute water to nearby areas. It's a serene spot with a rich cultural background, showcasing Hyderabad's heritage. The only demerit I felt was the Autorickshaw heckling and overcharging by drivers can be common issues in some areas. It's essential to negotiate the fare before starting the ride and, if possible, use ride-sharing services like Ola or Uber for more transparent pricing. These platforms often provide a more reliable and standardized fare system, helping to avoid potential hassles associated with autorickshaw rides. However, it's always advisable to be cautious and communicate clearly with the driver to ensure a fair and reasonable fare.

Gulzar Houz is near the historical monument Charminar in the old city of Hyderabad. One can get anything from bangles, beauty articles, bags, hair bands etc.. The place is visited by lot of tourists everyday. The place is famous particularly for pearls, which are used to sell on the roads of Hyderabad during Nizam times. The place is also famous for maggam works and other wedding day dresses. One can have everything for weddings starting from beautifully designed sarees, ghagra, salwars etc.. Cons 1)The place is very much congested and sometimes it is very difficult even to move as the roads are very narrow and almost 75 percent of the road space occupied by street vendors. 2) Getting parking place is impossible in this area. So try to avoid to take your four wheeler. 3) Never took auto here as they will demand exhoberant charges even for the small distance. It's better to walk upto Madina and took some Uber/Ola cab or auto.

Nice place.. It is historical. The monument here is amazing... It is always (morning to night) crowded with people and you get all kind of things (clothes, jewellery, shoes, kitchen products, seasonal items) over here.. Nice place for shopping.. Especially for budget friendly people.. food over here is amazing.. looking forward to visit again..

Hub for Gold, Silver and Artificial Jewelry's. But be careful while buying the Gold and Silver jewelry’s. The purity is not 916KDM. There’s huge mixing. Not recommended

A wealthy market for jewellery and clothing. You can buy clothes for all age groups. Lots of jewellery shops, pearl, stones, perfume shops are also exist here. There is a great marketplace available for imitation jewellery, factory outlets. You can also shop here marriage related items, ethnic wear. Bank branches are also available. Near Gulzar houz x road there is a fountain in the centre of the cross road.You can also buy make up related items, readymade items. This is the largest marketplace I've ever seen.

Most beautiful place in Hyderabad. Gulzar Houz and Charminar. Here are all the bangles, earrings, dresses etc that are available and so beautiful. We must visit this in Hyderabad City.

There is nothing.. I’m from Hyderabad and I don’t recommend people to go here it’s now very crowded.. please visit, unless you want to be fool and waste your time..

Ancient waterfall.... Hyderabad

It's associated with our historical establishments and is a shopping hot spot for gold, imitation, silver and clothing 😀 a very busy road as it falls in the middle and is a popular tourist attraction which had led to many hotels n restaurants being setup. Many new shops have also opened up in hosiery, home decor, accessories etc. An all in one area for shopping n family outing

GULZAAR HOUZ is situated between Charminar and Machli kaman .. Gulzaar Houz  WAS BUILT BY *Mir Momin Astarabadi Gorgoni* , Mir momin was then the first prime.minister of Hyderabad and was an architect and an Engineer. There goes a story ( A Filk lore ) that the huge chain around Gulza houz was made of Gold . Some people say it was platinum. Gulzaar houz !! Yes is a Land mark next famous to Charminar. Over a period of time .. Gulzar houz was refurbished / renovated several times .. Earlier the fountains of Gulzaar Houz used to work .. But The water doesnt flow in it no more. For Tourist visitng Charminar .. They have to go by walk from Gulzar houz to Charminar . Once ure visiting Charminar .. Its a must.place to buy pearls .. hugee bazaar ... Hundreds of shops to shop around. U can shop for gold .. crockery.. Gold .Silver pearls .. Clothes shows.

It is a very historical place where you can find charminar on one side sardar Mahal on the other side. Now at present there is a fountain present in the centre of the road which is defunct, plans are there for renovation of Gulzar houz.

Beautiful a bit crowded on Friday and night But Hyderabad you can really enjoy in night!!

Monuments are the language by which our ancestors speaks to us. The Nizams were the creators of excellent structures. Visiting it a pleasant experience

Excellent view of Gulzar Hauz just before the famous Charminar of Hyderabad. Especially the night view is just amazing

One of the best happening places in Hyderabad. It is the mixture of both historical & traditional markets in Telangana. Must visit this place if you are in Hyderabad. But the traffic during peak hours is unbearable. Many local famous foods are available here.

Gulzar house is a fountain which serves as connecting path to 3 localities and If someone wants to explore charminar area then this a starting path (only by walk is allowed) towards the monument and also lots of gold and silver jwellery shops nearby to shop in a reasonable cost.. very crowded area so becarefull with the pickpocketers and take care of your belongings.

This place is good to visit in early morning or late night. During the day there is too much traffic especially on weekends. There is a minimum charge to visit Charminar 20 rupees - but to see the charminar you have to go between 9am to 6 pm

Funny incident has happened at 12am nearly, there were 4 5 police van's we were new visitors to that place in the late night....we went near to cops and asked is Charminar open for a visit purpose and they called us to come nearby they were already half a dozen people standing over there and they took our photoshoot session in the late night near charminar closed barricades and they said to leave us. We parked our car near to charminar approx 600-700 mtrs clicked our car photo again and made a challan......We travelled all the way from Moulali to charminar for just this Amazing photoshoot by cops near charminar at late night....So I suggest not to visit charminar in the late night crossing 1130PM or else if u dare to go and then dressup well for photoshoot 😊.

They are very helpful for us to purchase gold they guide us in a correct way and they are very genuine at their quality 100% 916 hallmark and HUID THANKS

Very Busy Area as it is close to Charminar. Majorly the lane is filled with pearl and gold shops. U need to buy KITES for Sankranti then a must visit place. Do not dare to drive in car 🚗 u will have to park vehicles km's away.

Gulzar houz is the unique place from long time ago and it will be unique forever,I request to the people who ever visited there or live there it's our city and it is our duty to keep ourselves clean with our surroundings so please don't destroy it again as it was rebuild

It's actually the traffic line basically you cannot find cabs from the place like it takes too long to confirm the ride. Otherwise it's the centre for textile stores. You may get every pattern of clothing there.

Good to visit and shopping womens required items @ cheap price

It's very nice fountain at the time of nizam rule nw it's only name

A splendid water fountain was originally mafe of platinum .

Nice to see Gulzar house super view to see all shop we can

Very crowded... No one wearing mask

Is good every time traffic🚦

U can face lot of cowrd here, good at night

Charminar is a place for shopoholics..!!!😻from exquisite pieces of bangles to branded suitcases everything is available here... I did my wedding shopping here... Came across variety of stuffs with cheaper cost... One thing to remember is spend your valuable time in fixed price stores... If you are bargaining just know you're wasting money anyhow... Loved it overall... Great experience... Three days were not enough for me...

There are so many shops to shop Hyderabadi jewellery like jadawe chand Bali n all..there is a shop called "SUHAG" in ladbazar u can find everything u want in reasonably price...

A great traditional and historical monument built here...

Love it

heavy traffic everytime, we cannot take our car there because of traffic, for shopping we can use ola or uber

Beautiful place

Nice place

The area between the four arches of Charkaman was a vast square called Jilu Khana or the Guard's Square. In the centre of the square was the Char-Su-Ka-Hauz (the cistern of four cardinal points). This was later known as "Suka-Hauz" and now Gulzar Houz. It was an octagonal shaped water reservoir made for quenching the thirst of the Nizam's soldiers.At that time, there were four streams flowing from this fountain, dividing each of the Radial roads into two halves

Once upon a time a place was calm n neat but literally traffic kinda feel is hilarious

This place is famous for gold and silver ornaments a very old famous shop called Gulam Hyder Silver ornaments shop they keep genuine silver 92.5 Sterling silver item's must visit.

I have been there at peak hours of 5 pm in my car. The traffic is so heavy that to travel a 1km it took me 40 min and it felt like hours. It's really congested place for cars and other four wheelers just because of the crowd that come there for shopping and to see Charminar.

Gulzar Houz is a historical fountain located in Hyderabad, India. It is located near Charminar. The fountain is in the middle of the road between Charminar and Madina building. The area between the four arches of Charkaman was a vast square called Jilu Khana or the Guard's Squar Too much crowdy now a days, specially on holiday

Gulzar houz area got its name from the famous fountain built during the Nizam time ..this fountain is build like a flower and operates during festivals and on special occasions . Needs proper maintenance Lots of shops around selling pearls clothes . Crockery footwear

Very nice, pleasant atmosphere

Very crowded but very good 👍 awsome shopping 🛍 prices are very reasonable u get everything here

Need more cleanness and avoid traffic 🚦 more traffic police needed in this area And everyone should fallow the traffic rules

This is a very famous market in old city Hyderabad or all over the india

First of all it's a shopping place and a very good place for shopping specially for ladies... But there is a lot of traffic pollution and crowd. So as per the time think of going 1 hour before and leaving from there one hour. Have to maintain the crowd and traffic by hyderabad police.

It's a historical fountain build during Qutub Shah era. Looks great in architecture and need maintenance to bring back old Glory.

I have visited first time in night on before day of sankranthi. It is full of lightings pathangs and maanhas were shining in that. Good to visit on evening times and weekends for shopping.

Too much crowd and the cops are simply there for no reason they are not controlling ant traffic at all

Beautiful place and historical atmosphere

Shopping best place but dont visit on weekends its too much crowded nd dont go with kids for shopping also good place to just have fun with family nd go window shopping

My best discovery for spices.... You can find all sorts of spices here As per your requirement,they will adjust the spices measurements . It's been 1year I go to this place

Everything is good on shops but you have to be aware and alert while buying things

Char minar is wonderful to visit at night. Even in the month of march you will feel cool breeze. Atmospher is electryfing, must visit and do street shopping, you will enjoy iy. Also lots of food options are available including Paradise biryani outlet. The only downfall is exorbitant charges of Autowalas

Pros: We can see the beauty of old architecture. Many antic, textile and pearl shops can observe near by. Cons: Full rush all the time. Roads are narrow due to street shops

Highly crowded. Can't even stand it. The so-called famous Charminar has nothing to buy. It only has party wear clothes which are meant for Islamic functions. And the shopkeepers literally will pull you inside the shop if you stand there for more than 30 seconds. I went there on a weekday yet had a horrific experience.

It's a good, old famous place in the old city of Hyderabad. You can find many jewellery shops, bangle shops and all sorts of house decoration items there.

Amazing historical place with lot 9f shopping options. And once you get tired from all you got to have the most amazing food you can ever had

Nice shopping place for gold and artificial jewelry and shoes and clothes etc.. very low prices compared to other big malls or posh areas..

Lots of street side shopping must have Agra poori bhaji and lassi with crushed samosa along with Govind dosa and anil chaat

Good place but crowded tarrific department has to maintain some good way to have visitors get freely shopping etc

Nice place to visit in Hyderabad i recommend visit Charminar in evening or morning we can see amazing 4 piller of the minar

Good place for shopping women's accessories. The place kinda gets busy superfast in the evening. You might have to do a staggering deals with the hawkers/shops to by anything. There is free public parking available which can be used for your car or bike parking.

Historical place in regards to Hyderabad, just wish it wasn't as chaotic as it is. That place deserves to get rid of the choas for people to enjoy the history and it's historic beauty.

Here u buys the all items like dresses and readymade jewellery, Bangle and finger ring 💍, kid's toys, daily using items. And they was gold shop. Real gold jewellery shop are they.

It's a great bargain and authentic Hyderabadi attire, Pearl's jewelry and variety of stones bangles etc 😀

I family looking for a luxury villa in Hyderabad and my friend recommended this place. I loved the idea of a home that had all the amenities I needed. My family friend was right, this place was perfect. I visited the site and am excited to live here once the construction is done!!

Very Busy Bazzar, especially for women jwels and pearls. Not a suggested place for vegetarians.

Heritage at its best. Very populated area but when it comes to beautiful places built in time, i wud say hyderabad is one of them which has very rich heritage history show casing the architecture built with precision n materials which are still standing strong. Hats off to the great minds n super skill people at that tym.

It's Carrie's most ancient monumental buildings and 🕌 mosques around had shops like gold attars bangles clothes hotels so on

Still under construction... Charminar is good and nice place for shopping ..o Going again their

Very crowded place but worth doing the street shopping. Very cheap ladies chains and ear rings and bangles

It's a historical, landmark place on the northern side of the busy Charminar area surrounded by famous pearl & bangle stores, Gulzar House is a symbol for Hyderabad rich culture, presently this is under renovation, hope it will turnout to be a beautiful place .

Beautiful area for shopping. You can get everything local there. Very crowded. Goods are cheap.

Such a nice place, but my suggestion is to visit this place please plan on week days, so that you can have to look this historical place in peace and you can purchase the products.

Too much traffic, restoration is a hurdle, but autos are halting wherever they wish to. I guess mire traffic police should be assigned to this area to clear the jam

The best for street shopping in Hyderabad, this is one of the heritage place in hyderabad city where you can get every household items at best price if you have good bargaining skills, you can even get best food items of local food in both veg and non veg items it's usually crowded all the day and night times better to go by local autos as you don't get parking spaces over there, beware of pick pocketers

A historical monument which has been renovated after a long time to increase the beauty and ethnicity of the city

Yes but it is thickly crowded area 9and you must be alert always, take care, if you go on own car then it will be bit difficult to park your car. Better take ola, or Rapido etc

Good place for ice cream and chaat.

I had Hair transplant treatment in QHT HYDERABAD.very friendly staff and supportive team .I suggest every one qht clinic Hyderabad.

Morning before 10am N8 after 12/1pm best time to visit to avoid traffic and heavy public

It is of the finest architecture of Nizam era in Hyderabad. It has its own beauty. I'm glad that know the state Urban Development department is taking its restoration work seriously.

Very crowded but places to see in HYD
