Husain Sauger from railway. Photographer: Dayal, Deen
- Scope & Content:
-
Photograph with a view of the Hussain Sagar lake to the north of Hyderabad, taken by Lala Deen Dayal, c. 1890. The Hussain Sagar was created in 1562 by Sultan Ibrahim Quli Qutb Shah to help relieve a water shortage and named after Hussain Shah Wali, a holy man who had helped the sultan recover from an illness. It is fed by streams from the river Musi. The once immense Hussain Sagar has shrunk in size and is now a complex of parks, statuary, recreation grounds and boating clubs.
