Charminar is in the city of Hyderabad, capital of the state of Andhra Pradesh, India. Charminar is a squarish structure with four towers on the four corners of the square, each of whose sides is 20 metres in length. Muhammad Quli Qutb Shah built the monument in 1591 shortly after he had shifted his capital from Golkonda to what now is known as Hyderabad. The great monument is a synonym for Hyderabad and the pivot around which the glory and history of the city have developed. A thriving market lies around the Charminar, attracting people and merchandise of every description. In its heyday, the Charminar market had some 14,000 shops. Today, the market around the Charminar is crowded with shops, which sell glass bangles in rainbow colours. Charminar is the world's largest Talisman.
