Hyderabad now has a new landmark with the construction of the new Burj (a watchtower) or Bastion, at Masab Tank, which will shortly be inaugurated.
The Deccan Terrain Heritage, which
designed and built the Burj for GHMC, has revived the ancient construction techniques, with a hexagonal design. The sides of the structure are 10 feet wide at the base and taper as the tower reaches a 20-foot height.
