Located towards the south-central region of Andhra Pradesh, Cuddapah is a popular tourist destination in the South. The name Cuddapah was derived from the Telugu word ‘Gadapa’, which means ‘threshold’. This region is so named since it is the gateway to the sacred hill of ‘Tirumala’, the abode of Sri Venkateswara. ‘Gadapa’ in course of time became ‘Kadapa’, but was spelt as ‘Cuddapah’ during the colonial period. Later in 2005, ‘Cuddapah’ was officially changed to ‘Kadapa’ by the Government of Andhra Pradesh. In 2010, the District was named as YSR Kadapa District after Mr. Y. S. Rajasekhara Reddy (YSR), a former chief minister of Andhra Pradesh who was a native of this district. The district of Cuddapah has the shape of an irregular parallelogram. It is divided by the Eastern Ghats in to two parts which has different features.
