Rampachodavaram
Travel Information
An
exciting launch ride on river Godavari from Devipatnam takes you
to the tribal villages of Gandipochama and Rampachodavaram. You
can reach Rampachodavaram by road from Rajahmundry which is at a
distance of 50 Kms.
Here one can witness the traditional tribal dance, "Vela"
performed by women dressed in bright attire. The dance is highly
rhythmic accompanied by singing. Yet another tribal dance called
Kommu is performed by men only, dressed in typical tribal attire
with a head gear of horns.
While at Rampachodavaram , one can drive down to Marademalli just
20 Kms away, which is a little known hill station. The drive through
the dense jungle is quite enjoyable and one can expect to encounter
wild life. At Marademalli coffee and rubber plantations are cultivated
by the tribals.
