The Park

Ramoji Film city provides pre productive, production and post production resources. It has 500 set locations. The visitors are allowed to see them through a three hour tour of the City in the Film City Coaches. There are gardens, authentic sets , 50 studio floors, a digital film facility, outdoor locations and things like it to see.

In Ramoji Film City there are buses called the Eureka buses which take you for a round about of the film City. It takes across the bygone era and the ornamental bridges into the bowels of the forts. It takes you past the 72 steps to arrive at the Mayruan Magic. Here you can also walk down the lanes of the Mughal Glory. And as you past the lanes of the film city there is also the rugged Wild West filled with horses, cowboysa and gunfights. One of the most interesting thing of the Ramoji Film City is the morning welcome ceremony with kings and queens, music and pageant of the likes of Disneyland. So its a good thing to be the first person here in the morning.
As you move around, there at one corner of the Ramoji Film City you will find the Hawa Mahal - made on the line of the Golconda Fort of Hyderabad. Inside the Film City there is a Japanese garden, the ETV planet which is a multi-purpose editing suit, a water pool, artificial waterfalls, an realistic airport terminal, an artificial yet real looking hospital set, a railway station, various churches, mosques and temples, real shopping plazas, palace interiors resembling the real ones, chateaus, look alike rural complexes, urban dwellings, and a winding highway. And if you are a shopping buff then there is a lot in store for you. Things like handicrafts, pottery, south indian paintings are there for you to pick from. There is a nice little nursery from which one can take saplings to plant at home. It houses plants from world-over.
But thats not all. For the fitness freaks, there are top class health clubs with facilities like jacuzzis, sauna, steam bath, herbal massage. there are also ware houses from where one can buy souvenirs to take back home.
