Hyderabad, Industrial center in Sindh Province, Pakistan
The second largest city in Sindh Province lies on the Ganjo Takkar ridge, positioned east of the Indus River at an elevation advantageous for defense.
Founded in 1768 by Ghulam Shah Kalhora on the ancient settlement of Nirun-Kot, the city functioned as the capital of Sindh until British forces gained control in 1843.
The Institute of Sindhology Museum presents extensive collections of regional artifacts, documenting the evolution of Sindhi civilization through multiple historical periods.
The M-9 motorway connects the city to Karachi, while the railway station provides regular services to major Pakistani destinations through established national routes.
Local artisans manufacture almost all of Pakistan's glass bangles, continuing centuries-old techniques in specialized workshops throughout the city districts.
