5 Getaways From Hyderabad To Enjoy The Monsoon
By Devraj Bollareddy
Nagarjuna Sagar - Srisailam tiger reserve
This tiger reserve is the largest of its kind in India, covering almost 5 districts. It is situated in the middle of Nallamala Forest, setting the scene for a nice rain-forest vibe. If you are a road-trip type of person, this is the perfect getaway for you since it is 4 hours away from Hyderabad. The tiger reserve is home to many dams, the famous Ethipothala falls, rivers, and many ancient temples. Tigers are not the only species of exotic animals that you will lay your eyes on when you are over here, the tiger reserve is also home to the Indian leopard, Indian pangolin, and the Indian peafowl.
A day after three gates were opened, seven more opened up in Srisailam dam today. We can expect Nagarjunsagar Dam also to be opened up in the next few days. pic.twitter.com/5XQ0sR3M3Z

Lambasingi
If you are a peaceful vacationer that just wants to chill, unwind and relax while soaking in breathtaking views, then Lambasingi is the place for you. Lambasingi is a small village located in Andhra’s Visakhapatnam district and the pictures from the place make you feel like you are on the set of Twilight. This hill station is not as commercial as Ooty or Coorg, making it the perfect place for a peaceful getaway. Located just 103 kms from the Vishakhapatnam Airport, you can either drive down to Vishakapatnam and then head to Lambasingi or you could simply fly down to Visakhapatnam but the drive to Lambasingi from Visakhapatnam is a scenic one you should not miss at any cost.
