A Little Sightseeing Never Hurts

On our way back from Saripalli, we took a few quick excursions to see some of the religous sites.

We got stuck at a railway crossing waiting for the train that took for ever to come on our way back from Saripalli to Bhimivaram.







We next visited a Ksheera Ramam in Palakollu outside Bhimivaram. It is a 15th century temple built for the Hindu God Shiva. The first picture looks up at the temple and the second shows the temple complex from the top.








Our last stop before heading back to Hyderabad was at the Godavri River where it joins the Bay of Bengal. Hindus make pilgrimmages to this site to take a dip in the river. In respecting people's privacy we opted not to take a shot of anyone bathing/washing in the river.
