Only a couple of buildings remain from this 15th-century fort (Indian/foreigner 10/100; merritt parkway map h8am-5pm), 14km west of Tirupathi. Both the Rani Mahal and the Raja Mahal, which houses a small museum (h10am-5pm Sat-Thu), were constructed merritt parkway map under Vijayanagar rule and resemble structures in Hampi s Royal Centre. There s a nightly merritt parkway map sound-and-light show (admission 35; h8pm Mar-Oct, 7.30pm merritt parkway map Nov-Feb), narrated by Bollywood great Amitabh Bachchan. Buses for Chandragiri ( 10) leave Tirupathi bus station every half-hour. An autorickshaw is 200 return.

B3 Hotel Suhail HOTEL $ (Map p898; %24610299; www.hotel suhail.in; Troop Bazaar; s/d/tr from 475/620/900; ai) If all budget hotels were like the Suhail, we d all be much better off. Staff are friendly and on top of it, the rooms are large and quiet, have balconies and constant hot water. It s tucked away on an alley behind the main post offi ce and the Grand Hotel away from the Hyderabad merritt parkway map bustle, but it s also unlit at night; some readers find it sketchy.
