An expo that gives a peak into rural life

Darusshifa: A special photo exhibition on Telangana monuments and sites was kick-started on the occasion of International Day for Monuments and Sites at Salarjung Museum on Thursday.

Being organised in coordination with INTACH Hyderabad Chapter, the exhibition is being featured with the theme of 'Rural Landscapes.' It will conclude on April 30. According to organisers, for centuries, even for millennia, rural landscapes have maintained a balance between human activity and their environment.

A myriad of everyday actions in some cases resulted in moderate evolution and in other cases in dramatic transformations due to changes in production methods, technological advances or economic and political changes.

The resulting heritage features evidence from different periods, constituting a rich and complex ensemble of tangible, intangible and living heritage, in which change, transformation and evolution remain ongoing and continue as long as the rural landscape is alive.
