Built by Prolaya Vema Reddy of Kondavid for his business and pleasure, the Kondapalli Fort later served as a military fortification for the British. It has three successive imposing entrance gates. The main one is built out of a size block of granite and is called 'Dargha Darwaza'. Truly amazing place to explore. Here are a few more places to visit in Vijayawada that you should check out before planning your trip.
