Hitech City, together with neighbouring Madhapur, is where Hyderabad’s technology industry began, around the Cyber Towers building. The area is now one of the busiest parts of the city, with offices, apartments and a dense mix of cafés and restaurants. For Myra members, Hitech City is often the most convenient meeting place on a weekday, because so many people work here. Introductions commonly include members from Kondapur, Madhapur, Jubilee Hills and Gachibowli. The lake at Durgam Cheruvu and the cable bridge above it have become a favourite evening spot, especially when the bridge is lit up. If you want to meet someone after work, choose a place within walking distance of a Metro station so that getting home is simple. On weekends the area is quieter, which makes it a good time for longer conversations over brunch without the weekday rush. Food here reflects the many people who moved to Hyderabad for work, so you will find cuisines from every state within a few streets, which often becomes the first thing two people talk about. It was designed in the late 1990s as a planned technology township, and Cyber Towers was its first landmark.
