  A great place for half a day. Not worth doing in a rush. Suitable for all ages, but knee issues could be a spoil sport

  Ramtirrham stupa site I picked my Jeep, and decided to explore an old site. Somehow, i feel connected to old sites with stories and events. This particular site is almost 70km one way from vizag city. Most of the route is on the highway, which is pretty dry and not much to see. At approximately 52km, the service road goes left. You need to be cautious, if you miss it, it's going to be a long way for the next U turn. most of the journey post the left turn is full with greenery and the countryside. Very peaceful and green. It would take away all your stress from the city drive. Be careful as you come close to the site, you can park at a suitable spot. Do not take your vehicle till the end or start of the walk, as your vehicle could get easily stuck. The climb is steep, but not to worry it is cemented for most of the journey. There is a new temple at the top of the hill. The legacy goes, that an idol was found , naturally at the centre of the lake. That idol is now at the main temple at the bottom of the hill, inside the village. The site is also related to Buddhism and Jainism. Now coming to the climb, it is steep, but stick to it. It is worth the climb, the view is nothing less than breathtaking. At the moment, there is construction of a new temple on top of the hill. There is a small cave, behind the temple. One can walk around the hill also, there is a trail, i did not have the time to attempt it . You can also walk to the other end of the hill, where there is an old temple of brick, whose remains are still held. There is an old pathway to the bottom of the hill from here. The walk to the start point will be around 15 minutes walk at average pace. Further, there is an ancient stupa, approximately 4km from the pathway near the brick old temple. We reached the hill only by 4pm, hence could not explore much. There are no longer washrooms around. Neither is there any water facility, so please be self sufficient.

  ramatheertham nature view

  my first resolution for 2020 is travel as many as places bcz travel memories is the only memories we never regret and forget it stays near to heart. so my search has begin where to go and what to do , then i thought let me explore vizianyanagaram which is near to my city . traveling to Vizianyanagaram is too easy we can go by bus , train , and by road .. ( by flight u cant 😂😂) so me and my friend planned road trip ( on bike ) at early morning for ramatheertham trekking , kumili visit and ramanarayanam we have started at 4.am in morning , carried some scarf , sweaters and water bottle . our road journey started pretty good later it became little bad due to unexpected rain . we cant stop anywhere to save us from rain because it is highway and there is no bus stop or any shops by roadside, so we continued our journey in rain . then we found a shelter , we have waited around 15mins then again we started our journey . within 1 hour 45 mins we reached kumili village which is famous for kumili temple .. time was 5.47am but still it feels like 2am , its dark and cold. then we spotted a bonfire in our way, we went there we took permission of farmer who is sitting near by fire , my friend asked him can we sit hear we are feeling cold thankfully that man said okay . we felt happy and warm 😍 we sat there for 20 -30 mins and thanked uncle who have gave us permission to sit and went to kumili temple. architecture of the temple is so beautiful but main drawback is this temple is not well maintained . took some great photos . this temple have a lot of gods statues including Jesus nearly 20 small temples inside kumli, then we came out of the temple had a worst tea near by . never drank that kind of tea in my life . less tea powder lots of water less milk lots of sugar. after drinking tea i got stomach ache.. 😞😞 then we started our journey to ramatheertham for trekking which took 20 mins of road journey from kumili . village was beautiful but roads just sucks.. finally reached to ramatheertham now we have to do trekking by climbing 600 stairs and climbing 1.2km hill .. this was different experience. started climbing stairs my legs started paining but i dont want to giveup . so with pain and flow i went slowly up, now i need to climb sloppy hill finally faced it went up yo see the beautiful view it was around 8.30 am . all i can see is clouds hills beautiful nature . this was amazing . climbing this big hill to watch this beautiful view is perfectly worthy .. after many years i heard alot of birds sounds 😍😍😍 took many pictures there was a small temple above the hill which will be closed most of the times .. that was not well developed and maintained , You can find a small pond which is more than 1000ft . after walking 10-15 mins long u will find a cave which is too tiny and u need to crawl inside it . guess what i wore traditional clothes , normal sandals and walked and came for trekking 😂😂😂 . now its time to go ramanarayanam it took 30 mins for us to reach from ramatheertham to ramanarayanam . bike parking ticket cost us 20rps we felt that was waste because nobody is in temple everything is empty 🤔 entry ticket is 40rps per head that is absolutely okay.. 😂 slowly started going inside then i saw a very high Hanuman statue .. then went inside the temple where i read whole ramayanam by watching all architecture and sculptures.. thats it ramanarayanam was completed i didn't felt that good actually i felt architecture was damn good but other than that nothing is there to see. by coming out i found small puppy i spent time with him then returned to vizag ( Visakhapatnam ) to my home within a hour.. what all i like is village vibes , village , greenery , birds sounds, kumili temple , trekking and beautiful view at ramatheertham and architecture of ramanarayam..  reached home safely with good memories and pain in legs 😂😂😂..

  Old temple

  The temple visit is very old. But still nicely maintained. The temple is near to Vizianagaram but is lest supported by archeological team or the government. The rock is aging 1000 years as it is told.
