Each time I travel to Hyderabad and beyond, I feel like an explorer, coming across unique places. The last time I took the Hyderabad to Gokarna trip, I found the Yana Caves.
There have been other fulfilling journeys, such as the Hyderabad to Arunachalam Temple, Hyderabad to Chikmagalur, and so on!
And this time, I am here to share a beautiful account of my journey from Hyderabad to Bangalore.
Also, as I pen this article, Hyderabad takes a step forward in its medical tourism sector with a partnership with Ethiopian Airlines.
The operations, starting on 16th June 2025, will offer direct connectivity for people from Africa visiting Telangana for advanced medical treatments.
Bangalore, our destination this time, also expects a surge in its medical tourism sector, with the SPARSH Group opening its new quaternary care center at Hennur.
It’s great to see significant growth and diversification in the tourism sectors of both these leading tourist attractions in South India. From temple tourism to medical tourism, both places have a lot to offer.
Nevertheless, in this Dream and Travel Guide, we will focus more on the journey rather than the destinations. So, let’s begin!
