2025 Anantapuram Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in May)

The name of this fort came from the word 'Gutti' which means Gowthamapuri, a nearby 🌆. Dating back to 7th century BC, this fort is actually a group of forts 🏯 including 15 small forts in there with all the facilities included. They got places to store all the grains, keep prisoners and a little pond structure from which the king will have his daily usage water. The pond 🏞️ is so preserved that someone won't dare to poison it. In case of siege moment, it has got all the emergency things to save the lives of important personnel in the kingdom. It is quite an imagination how they're so prepared for whatever comes ahead. The granary 🌾is a must visit, as it has got a nice technique to put all the rices from the top and retrieve back from the bottom. You'll have fun hiking 🥾 and exploring this fort and totally deserves your day. #forthike #indiatravel #summervacation#hikingtrails

#timetotravel Jataaya theme park in Lepakshi is a newly built by the govt. of Andhra Pradesh. It's based on the character from epic Ramayana, that is the bird Jataaya who was killed by Ravana while abducting devi Sita. There are some stairs to reach the top but it was worth climbing for us as the views of Lepaksh are incredible with a glimpse of Lepakshi temple, which is located at just 5 mins walk. ✅ Entry fees of Just 10 INR. ✅ Parking also available. #themepark #lepakshi #temple #bengaluru #india

Lepakshi temple also known as Veerbhadra temple is a 500 yrs old temple located just 120 kms from Bengaluru is a perfect one day trip destination. It's a perfect example of ancient art & architecture. Also this temple shows some significant incidences mentioned in Ramayana. It's also a major lord Shiva temple. There's no entry fees, however you can donate depending on your wish. I'd suggest early morning or later half of the day is ideal time as it gets hotter in afternoon . #temple ##templesofindia #southindia #bengaluru #india

Mountains have always served great purpose in every sense to humans, especially as a protective cover. Gooty fort ⛩️has been perfectly constructed by a Mughal king, to cover the city. The mountain is horse-shoe🧲 shaped that only the entrance has an opening. They've taken this to their advantage to build a complete wall 🧱 over the edges of the ⛰ mountain, so adversaries can't invade in any other direction. We started 🥾 hiking from the foothills to the top of the fort up to the king's view. From the top, it exactly reflects how it is a clear advantage. It took nearly 1 hour and 30 minutes to reach the top. Also no shops or anything in there, so you better have some snacks prepared for yourself 🥸 Also a good camera 📸 to click some nice pictures haha #forthike #indiatravel #summervacation#hikingtrails
