About Perantalapalli

Perantalapalli is a small riverside village deep inside the Papikondalu hills, reached only by boat on the Godavari. The Shiva temple here has been a place of worship for centuries. Devotees come to offer prayers and seek blessings beside the river. The village sits among dense forests and is one of the stops on the Rajahmundry to Papikondalu day tour. It gives visitors a glimpse of life inside the gorge, away from the main towns.
