Tirupati
Known as the spiritual hub of Andhra Pradesh, Tirupati is frequented by tourists for its beautiful ancient temples. Located in the Chitoor district, Tirupati is home to the famous Hindu temple of Sri Venkateswara that attracts millions of devotees each year.

Gandikota
Gandikota may be a small village in the Kadapa district of Andhra Pradesh, but it is home to one of India’s hidden natural wonders. A spectacular gorge formed by the Pennar River that cuts through the Erramala hills is known as the Hidden Grand Canyon of India, and those who’ve seen it will agree. Head to the Gandikota Fort to get amazing views of the famous gorge that can rival those found in Arizona.
