You might have heard the name Grand Canyon in USA, one the Seven Wonders of the Natural World.But
did you know that there is a hidden Grand Canyon in India as well? There is, and it is nothing less than
breathtaking. It’s true – in the Southern Indian state of Andhra Pradesh, there is a small village in the
Kadapa district named Gandikota, and it is home to India’s Hidden Grand Canyon. Carved by the Penna
River that snakes its way through the Erramala Ranges in Andhra Pradesh, experts believe the canyon is
more than a thousand years old. The best part is that the untouched and unexploited natural beauty
blends seamlessly with the area’s rich historical past.
