EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the serene beauty of Hussain Sagar Lake in Hyderabad, India, during the early 1900s. The lake, built in 1562 by Hazrat Hussain Shah Wali during the rule of Ibrahim Quli Qutb Shah, spans an impressive 24 square kilometres and was constructed on a tributary of the River Musi to meet the water and irrigation needs of the city. The lake's calm waters reflect the lush greenery and the majestic statue of Buddha, which was erected in 1992 on a pedestal in the middle of the lake. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the rich history and culture of Hyderabad. The 16th-century lake continues to be a popular tourist destination and a source of pride for the people of Hyderabad, providing not only a scenic backdrop but also an essential water source for the city. This photograph is a testament to the enduring charm of Hyderabad and its history, offering a window into the past while reminding us of the importance of preserving our heritage for future generations.
