Calm


Calm, originally uploaded by chandamama.

Godavari river is pretty calm at this gorge. In monsoon season and during flooding, it roars like lion. This particular location is called 'paapi kondalu" (పాపికొండలు) and narrowest during the river's journey.

I made this boat trip this year because, either end of this year or next year, Polavaram project starts which will immerse all this beauty and near by villages. It is unfortunate to think, that this gets flooded after project however, it helps lot of farmers to get ample water supply for their crops. One gains and other looses. If you live close by or visiting this place, please have a spare day and make trip.
