Trip to Medak n Pocharam

NH7---HYDERABAD -NAGPUR HIGHWAY

MEDAK CHURCH

POCHARAM DAM

POCHARAM DAM

Thanks to unseasonal rains, this trip kept getting postponed time and again. Finally, the rain gods smiled ( pun intended), and I decided to go on the NH7 ( Hyderabad – Nagpur highway).I had heard a lot about it. Now, was the time to experience it firsthand. Finally on the morning of  27^th Nov, 2010, left for the highway at 7.00 AM. Did encounter some traffic till 30 kms from Hyderabad. But, after crossing Medchal, it became a four lane touring bliss with entire villages being bypassed. Cruising at 120 km/hr listening to music became enjoyable. Took a left diversion after crossing  Ramayampet to goto Medak. Medak at 120 kms from hyderabd houses a beautiful Church and a fort. Visited both and then went ahead upto Pocharam. Saw the small Pocharam Dam and lake. Then it was time to go back home. Had lunch at Ramayampet and was back in Hyderabad by 4.00 PM. In all a short and sweet trip.

To and Fro from Hyderabad -----255 Kms in a single day
