Overview
Rajamahendravaram (formerly Rajahmundry), one of the oldest cities in Andhra Pradesh, sits on the banks of the mighty Godavari River and is revered as the cultural capital of Telugu-speaking people. The drive from Mumbai to Rajamahendravaram covers approximately 1,100 km and takes around 16-18 hours via NH 44 through Pune, Solapur, and Hyderabad, then continuing on NH 65 through Vijayawada to Rajamahendravaram. The route passes through the Deccan Plateau before descending into the fertile Godavari Delta, one of India's most productive rice-growing regions. An overnight halt at Hyderabad (570 km from Mumbai) is recommended. The city is home to the ancient Kotilingeswara Temple with its 108 Shiva lingas and the iconic Godavari Arch Bridge (third longest in Asia when built). The Pushkara Ghat on the Godavari hosts the Godavari Pushkaralu festival every 12 years, when millions of pilgrims bathe in the sacred river. Rajamahendravaram has a strong literary heritage — it is the birthplace of the Telugu literary movement and home to the Nannaya, considered the Adi Kavi (first poet) of Telugu. The Dowleswaram Barrage, an engineering marvel built by Sir Arthur Cotton in 1850, tamed the Godavari's floods and transformed the delta into a granary. The nearby Papi Hills (Papikondalu), a stunning gorge where the Godavari cuts through the Eastern Ghats, is accessible by boat from Rajamahendravaram and is often called the Andhra Kashmir.
