According to The Times of India, these two projects in Telangana are aimed at introducing international-standard golfing facilities and attracting professional and amateur golfers from across the world.

For those of you who don’t know, a golf course is a large outdoor facility designed with a series of holes (9 or 18) to play golf. This facility is usually amid nature, as the natural hills, trees and streams help dictate how players hit the ball and make every course unique. Plus, open green spaces, quiet surroundings and natural views can help lower stress. It clears the mind and makes the game more enjoyable.
