SRISAILAM

Srisailam Reserve Forest :

Srisailam boasts of one of the largest Tiger Reserves in India. This sanctuary covers an area of 3568 km². The terrain is rugged and winding gorges slice through the area.This area is covered by dry deciduous forests with scrub and bamboo thickets.

These forests provide shelter to a range of animals like the Tiger, Leopard, Deer, Sloth Bear, Hyena, Jungle Cat, Palm Civet, Bonnet Macaque and Pangolin.

Srisailam Dam :

We find Krishna River flowing via this place, on which Srisailam-Dam is constructed which is about 512 m long. It is set amidst beautiful natural scenery -ghats, cliffs, craggy ridges, plateaus and dense forests. It has twelve crest gates to hold a maximum water level of 885 ft (270 m). The down water of Srisailam-Dam is home to a variety of crocodiles. Andhra Pradesh government supports a breeding program which has been highly successful.

Historic Place :

Srisailam is known for many ancient temples, the most visited place been Sri Mallikarjuna Swamy Temple which is one of the 12 Jhothirling in India. One can also visit Sikharam which is located on the top of the hill, the view is excellent from the top. Patalganga Shakshi Ganapathi , Paladhara Panchadhara and Shivaji Museum.

Akka Mahadevi Caves :

One need to take the boat to reach the place, which  will take one hour to reach. The boat ride operates only before noon, the  ride to this place is excellent where one can find the scenic view and the Chinchu Tribes and Fisherman residing on the banks of the river.

Istakameshwari :

Apart from the general view of Srisailam, which every one  talk about. We strongly recommend the visit to Istakameshwari Temple, the visit to this place is totally rocky surface where our own mode of transportation will not   work, hence we need to hire the Commando-Jeep.The ride to the place will never  let you seat, it bumps always giving more excitement to the ride, the distance covered is roughly 10 kms.
