Bowenpally (Spelled as Bow-en-palli) is a locality in Secunderabad in the City of Hyderabad, India. It is predominantly an upper middle class area. It has some of the best residential colonies. It is located on the northwest fringe of secunderabad city.[1] Bowenpally is part of the secunderabad area, where the British held sway for several years. The old village of Bowenpally with its people-friendly streets still exist. One among the few old structures left is an old shrine with some rough sculptures of a bull with distinct Kakatiyan design, near the Bowenpally Police Station. It is a juncture connecting different parts of the city.
The Hyderabad airport has a single 0927 (east–west) runway. Bowenpally is just north of this unmistakable landmark. It is also the meeting point of two national highways: NH 7 (marked as "Nizamabad Road" on the map) and NH 9 (marked as "Pune Road" on the map). It serves as the gateway to the city from these two highways. Bowenpally is known for its peace and communal harmony with masjids, gurdwaras and temples galore. The community is richly diverse with people of various ethnicities.
