I and my friend decided to visit nagarjuna sagar from hyderabad when he came back from office at 6:00 pm. we immediately packed a small hand bag with a set of clothes and planned to spend the next day at nagarjuna sagar. we started off at 6:45 pm and it was dark besides the traffic being heavy. we started on my honda unicorn and took the route via koti, dilshuknagar to nagarjuna sagar highway. as the traffic was heavy it took us more than 70 - 80 minutes to get on to the highway.
best route: take the road via narayanguda, amberpet, to uppal x road to lb nagar x road, then to highway. it is long but traffic is less.
anyway the highway is pretty fine. some places that lie in sequence are
ibrahimpatnam, macherla and then sagar.
road: the road is very good throughout. except for a few ten kilometers in and out of macherla.
best time to visit during monsoon, gates are fully open
so, go ahead and enjoy. avoid travelling at night.
hutch, airtel have very weak signal only cellone works propperly.
these is a guest house ph no. is 08680-276540. name is geenlands
it has a/c rooms too and pretty cheap too.
too much of security is there. people are not allowed to go anywhere near the dam.
there is another place known as ettipotala falls, a must see.
infact I would personally advice u to stay at ettipotala.
so go ahead enjoy and have a nice weekend
