Kadapa, Administrative center in YSR district, India
Located 8 kilometers south of the Penna River, Kadapa spreads between the Eastern and Western Ghats with black and red ferrous soil terrain.
The region transformed from ancient Mourya and Satavahana control through multiple dynasties until British forces established it as a collectorate in 1800.
The population of 466,000 residents communicates primarily in Telugu and Urdu, following Hindu and Islamic traditions in this southern Andhra Pradesh city.
The Mumbai-Chennai railway line serves Kadapa through its central station, while the commercial airport opened in 2015 provides additional transportation options.
The city received its name from the Telugu word 'gadapa', meaning threshold, as it functions as an entry point to the Tirumala hills.
