Located in the east Godavari district of Andhra Pradesh, Konaseema is known for its magnificent landscape, artistic temples, lush greenery, swaying palm trees and fields. The River Godavari is situated on one side and the Bay of Bengal on the other. The region is immaculate & verdant and one can find many agricultural fields around. One of the most fertile lands in the Coromandel Coast, Konaseema is home to many fields of cashew, mangoes and paddy. Owing to its proximity to the Bay of Bengal, the region is prone to cyclones. Another important aspect of Konaseema is its cuisine, which is a tasteful blend of local delicacies and fresh sea food. During the Kartika Masamm, many religious festivals are celebrated in the region. One can witness small camphor lamps floating in the river during the pre-dawn hours.
