Gandikota is a small village in the Kadapa district of Andhra Pradesh. It formed by the river Pennar that cuts through the Erramala hills. This nature’s hidden gem is popularly known as the Grand Canyon of India.
People from various places visit & get bewitched by its beauty.
There are several other attractions in and near the village that attract visitors, the most special being the ancient, magnificent Gandikota fort that sits majestically on top of the gorge.

Best part is this small village is being commercialized which means you're not likely to find more noisy crowds of tourists photobombing your selfies and garbage littered about everywhere (apart from weekends).
