Gandikota is a small village in the Kadapa district of Andhra Pradesh. The village is majorly known for housing the spectacular gorge which is famously adjudged as the Grand Canyon of India. The stunning gorge has been created by the waters of the famous river Pennar that streams from the Erramala hills. There are several other attractions in and near the village that allure visitors, the most special being the ancient, magnificent Gandikota fort that sits majestically on top of the gorge. The beautiful Rayalacheruvu Lake is one of the famous tourist spots to witness inside the Grand Canyon of India. Lying next to the Gandikota fort, the lake is said to be constructed by emperor Sri Krishnadevaraya who used the waters of the Pennar river. The entire serenity of the place leaves one with a peaceful mind. According to recent developments, the lake will now be used for irrigation purposes in order to help the farmers of the village and not just as tourist attraction spots of Andhra Pradesh.
