Nellore, Commercial metropolis in Andhra Pradesh, India

Nellore extends along the Penna River banks, functioning as a primary agricultural center with extensive rice and sugarcane production in Andhra Pradesh.

The city transitioned through multiple governing dynasties, including the Cholas and Vijayanagara, before becoming part of British-controlled Madras Presidency in the 18th century.

The Ranganatha Temple and Ramalingeswara Temple represent significant religious structures where devotees participate in traditional Hindu ceremonies throughout the year.

The Nellore railway station, categorized as an A-grade facility, connects to major Indian cities while local transportation operates through APSRTC bus services.

The name Nellore derives from Tamil words meaning 'paddy place,' reflecting its agricultural heritage as a major rice cultivation center.
