Gandikota is a village and historical fort on the right bank of the Penna river, 15 km from Jammalamadugu in Kadapa district, Andhra Pradesh, India. The fort was the centre of power for various dynasties, such as the Kalyani Chalukyas, Pemmasani Nayakas, and the Golconda Sultanate. It is home to a stunning canyon, by the Pennar river. Also called Gandikota Canyon, this natural structure is often compared to the Grand Canyon of Arizona, USA.
Veerabhadra temple is a Hindu temple located in the Lepakshi, in the state of Andhra Pradesh, India. The temple is dedicated to the Virabhadra, a fierce incarnation of Lord Shiva. There is a huge Nandi bull made from a single granite stone. Lepakshi has many murals from the Vijayanagar Era and the famous sculpture of the snake on the Nagalinga. Local legend claims that the 'naga' was carved from a single block of stone while the sculptors were waiting for their mother to cook lunch for them!
The Belum Caves is the second largest cave system on the Indian subcontinent, known for its speleothems, such as stalactite and stalagmite formations. The Belum Caves have long passages, galleries, spacious caverns with fresh water and siphons. Caves go about 3.5kms in length but only 1.5-2km portion is opened to tourist. There are indications that Jains and Buddhists monks occupied these caves centuries ago. Many Buddhists relics were found inside the caves.

Goutham S
Been here for the first time, I seriously recommend every one to opt for this . I have been here for the first time and thoroughly enjoyed each and every moment. The best part with this camp is these people are not working for money i.e earning some profit, they are purely passionate about the travel and making the people satisfactory. The accommodation,bus arrangements , contacts with local guys over there are too good for the budget which we are paying.
Arshad Khan
This was one hell of a trip I must say . Special thanks to let's go for a camp and my fellow mates who came.for the trip. Mud football , team build up games ,trekking through dense forest , Leach attacks, riding on top of the van , singing songs etc created a sense of happiness in me .The food was also really good. We are looking forward for more trips with let's go for a camp.If u wanna get lost with ur mind peacefully ,then don't hesitate to join Let's go for a camp.

I had a awesome experience at let's go for a camp.I got to meet new friends and had many memories. Thanks to the team who had orgaanised it so well and gave full justice to the theme dance with the rain gods. After a long I played mud games and relived my childhood days.
Shriram Pradeep
I have gone for 2 camps with this team. Both of them were really good and the activities included in the camp for two days helps you get a picture of the whole place. The food provided by team is made in local houses which is really good as well. The enthusiasm of the management team is never dying and makes the camp really fun filled.
