Amaravathi mandal

Amaravathi mandal is an administrative unit in Palnadu district that extends along the Krishna River and encompasses seventeen villages. The area spreads across the valley with scattered settlements, agricultural fields, and a network of roads connecting different village centers.

The administrative unit was established in 2022 when Palnadu district separated from Guntur district. The area contains archaeological remains that show human settlement dating back to ancient periods.

The region maintains traditional Panchayati raj governance through village councils, integrating local decision-making processes with district administration.

The mandal headquarters is located in Amaravathi village with basic facilities like schools, health centers, and government offices spread across the area. Visitors can move around using local bus services that connect to nearby larger towns.

The area contains Dharanikota, an ancient settlement with archaeological importance from classical times. This site is frequently overlooked despite offering evidence of early urban development in the region.
