[Incredible India] India Hyderabad Travel 印度海德拉巴遊記 EP3

在逛完查摩哈拉宮（Chowmahalla Palace）以後我們就到一家很老的飯店吃有名的Briyani, 餐廳的名字叫做 Hotel Shadab, 人真的超級多而且翻桌率很快。

餐前的烤雞肉也很好吃，朋友點了雞肉跟羊肉的Briyani, 羊肉的羊騷味不會很重，所以到印度可以推薦試試看羊肉的相關食物。印度的可樂叫做“Thumbs Up",喝起來的味道跟可樂比起來的話我覺得淡一點點，但是都是氣泡飲料，所以我覺得好像沒什麼差別但是有到印度的話可以試試看

After visiting Chowmahalla Palace, we went to a very old restaurant to try the famous Biryani. The restaurant is called Hotel Shadab, and it was incredibly crowded with a fast turnover rate. The pre-meal grilled chicken was also delicious. My friend ordered both chicken and mutton Biryani. The mutton had a mild lamb flavor, so I would recommend trying lamb-related dishes in India. In India, the famous cola "Thumbs Up," and its taste is a bit milder compared to regular cola, but both are carbonated beverages, so I didn't notice much of a difference. If you ever go to India, give it a try!

吃飽飯後，我們就要前往查米納塔門 (Charminar)，前往的途中會開始經過很多市集跟小販，，大部分都是一些圍巾，髮飾，手環，耳環等等，逛街最重要的還是要有印度當地人陪伴，不然會被當冤大頭大抬價。同行的朋友真的很厲害，大概都可以知道價位在哪邊然後幫忙殺價。另外在海得拉巴有比較特別的耳環，大多耳環都如同下面類型，然後很多顏色或設計，真的滿漂亮的。

After having a full meal, we headed to Charminar. On the way there, we passed through many markets and street vendors, mostly selling items like scarves, hair accessories, bracelets, earrings, and more. The most important thing when shopping is to have a local Indian accompany you, or else you might be overcharged. Our traveling companions are really skilled; they can usually tell where the prices are and help with bargaining. In addition, there are some unique earrings in Hyderabad. Most of the earrings are of the type shown below, and they come in many colors and designs, which are really beautiful.

終於走了好久到了查米納塔門 (Charminar)，進入塔中也是需要門票跟相機另外收費，一樣印度人比較便宜外國人比較貴。但是一樣記得帶好現金，印象中無法無現金付款朋友很迅速的帶著我們前往登塔。我以為怎麼這麼好有電梯，結果是一條彎曲的小樓梯，而且上去跟下去都是同一條路。爬的不會很高，只是樓梯很窄，有點抖，又滑，人又很多一直不停地催促你往前快快走，因此整個導致壓力很大。

We finally walked for a long time and arrived at Charminar. To enter the tower, you need to buy tickets and pay an additional fee for your camera. It's cheaper for Indians and more expensive for foreigners. But make sure to carry cash, as I remembered that they didn't accept cardless payments. My friend quickly led us to the tower. I thought there would be an elevator, but it turned out to be a narrow and winding staircase, and the same path was used for going up and down. The climb wasn't very high, but the stairs were narrow, a bit shaky, and slippery. There were a lot of people constantly urging you to move forward quickly, which added a lot of pressure.

但是上去之後一切空曠，可以從塔上俯瞰下面市集跟隔壁有名的邁賈清真寺，風吹得很涼，很多鴿子都在洞裡面過得很好。離開擁擠的人潮跟車聲，在塔上真的是很舒服。並且超好拍照的，喜歡拍照的朋友可以在上面多待一陣子。

After going up, it's all open, and you can overlook the bustling market below and the famous Mecca Masjid. The wind blows cool, and many pigeons are living well in the tower. Leaving the crowded crowds and the noise of cars, it's really comfortable on the tower. Plus, it's a great place for photography, so friends who enjoy taking photos can spend some more time up there.

我們逛完塔上之後，就沒有繼續前往清真寺，因為實在受不了吵雜的車子聲音，有點想要快點離開老城區，當然回來之後有點後悔沒有進去，所以我覺得老城區可能可以分兩天慢慢逛逛。下塔之後我們又在附近的市集閒晃買東西，這時候又體會到印度人殺價的方式，他們是永遠不會有一個結論，但是東西卻是可以拿到你想要的價錢。這個部分是要跟印度朋友多多學習的地方。

After we finished visiting the tower, we didn't continue on to the Mecca Masjid because I couldn't stand the noisy car noises. I kind of wanted to leave the old town area quickly. Of course, I regretted not going in when I came back, so I think we might need two days to explore the old town slowly. After coming down from the tower, we strolled around the nearby market to buy some things. At this point, we experienced the way Indians haggle; they never seem to reach a conclusion, but you can still get what you want at the price you desire. This is something we can learn from our Indian friends.

下午回到朋友住處，吃了印度下午茶，炸洋蔥跟炸馬鈴薯餅，不會做飯的我只能很羨慕他們，隨手都可以弄出一點東西來吃。這個我就做不到了

In the afternoon, I returned to my friend's place and had Indian afternoon tea, with fried onions and potato fritters. I, who cannot cook, could only envy them, as they could effortlessly whip up something to eat. This is something I cannot do.

今天晚餐就跳過了但是還是喝了杯“Chai", 在印度 Chai=Tea, 所以我們只要說“Chai" 就可以了，如果說 Chai Tea就等於說了兩次 Tea Tea. 這家飲料店專門賣茶，叫做“Chai Minar"跟查米納塔門 (Charminar) 有異曲同工之意。他們的masala tea, Ginger tea, Cinnamon tea 都很好喝喔～推推

I skipped dinner tonight, but I still had a cup of "Chai." In India, Chai means tea, so all we need to say is "Chai." If you say Chai Tea, it's like saying Tea Tea. This beverage shop specializes in selling tea and is called "Chai Minar," which is similar in meaning to Charminar. Their masala tea, ginger tea, and cinnamon tea are all very delicious – highly recommended!

因為最近好像是釋迦季節，所以同行朋友就帶我們去一家冰淇淋店，沒想到可以是得來速的概念，停好車子就有人出來點餐。餐點做好直接在車上食用，付錢也用電子支付，完全不用下車的概念，超級無敵方便。

Because it seems to be custard apple season recently, our friends took us to an ice cream shop. To our surprise, it had a drive-thru concept. As soon as we parked, someone came to take our order. The food was prepared, and we could enjoy it right in our car. Payment was done electronically, and we didn't need to get out of the car at all – it was incredibly convenient.
