Lying on the banks of the Krishna River and surrounded by the Indrakeeladri Hills, Vijayawada is the second most populous city of Andhra Pradesh. The name “Vijayawada '' roots back to one of the mythological legends, which said that Goddess Durga killed Mahishasura – the demon. As she was victorious the place came to be known as “Vijayawada '', precisely meaning “the place of victory”. The hills were called “Indrakeeladri Hills'' as Lord Indra and his associates frequently visited them. The river Krishna, a permanent water supply together with the Buckingham Canal on the river’s southern bank is Vijayawada’s most significant feature. With deep cultural history and a flavoursome food palate, let us explore the city of Vijayawada.
