Spread across the expansive Numaish Maidan in Nampally, at the heart of the city, the exhibition boasts over 2,000 stalls. Opening its doors to visitors daily from 4 p.m. to 10 p.m., the entry ticket price remains unchanged at Rs 40, ensuring accessibility for all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Originating in 1938, Numaish is recognized as one of the world’s oldest and largest trade fairs. Initially conceived by graduates from Osmania University as a means to promote locally-produced goods, it has evolved into a major annual event. The inaugural ‘numaish’ was inaugurated by the seventh Nizam of Hyderabad State, Mir Osman Ali Khan, who spurred its transformation into an annual event with proceeds dedicated to education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Beginning with a modest 50 stalls and a capital of Rs.2.50, Numaish has grown into a significant industrial exhibition, with only two interruptions in its history\u2014in 1947 and 1948 due to post-Independence turmoil, and in 2020 amid the Covid-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Featuring traders from across the country, the exhibition offers an array of goods, including handicrafts, toys, imitation jewelry, ladies apparel, crockery, and electronic items. Complementing the shopping experience are amusement spaces, rides, and popular food outlets serving delectable kebabs, biryani, haleem, and more. Drawing in 40,000-50,000 daily visitors, Numaish stands as a testament to India’s diverse trade and cultural heritage.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
