Buddhist Andhra — Amaravati & Nagarjunakonda, 5 Days

Vijayawada · Amaravati · Nagarjunakonda · Guntur

Andhra Pradesh holds two of the most important Buddhist sites in India, and this five-day route covers them properly. Amaravati, where a Satavahana stupa stood and whose carved limestone panels are among the finest Buddhist sculpture anywhere; Nagarjunakonda, an Ikshvaku centre whose monuments were moved to an island when the dam flooded the valley; and the rock-cut Undavalli caves. Includes the Vijayawada temples and Guntur’s Kondaveedu fort.
