Hyderabad (Telugu: హైదరాబాద్ [ɦəjd̪ərɑːbɑːd̪], Urdu: حیدرآباد, [ɦɛːd̪(ə)raːbaːd̪]), is the capital of the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh. It also goes by its sobriquet City of Pearls.[3] As of 2010 it is the sixth largest city and sixth largest metropolitan area of India.[1] Hyderabad was founded by Muhammad Quli Qutb Shah in 1591 on the banks of Musi. Today the city covers an area of approximately 650 km².[4] The city has been classified as an A-1 city in terms of development priorities, due to its size, population and impact.[5] The twin cities of Hyderabad and Secunderabad come under the ambit of a single municipal unit, The Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation.
