Highlights on Nuzvid

Nuzvid is a mandal and municipality in Krishna District, Andhra Pradesh, India. It is 50 km from Vijayawada and 35 km from Eluru. This place is well connected by bus and rail. Nuzvid is well known for its mangos, which are exported world wide.

Nuzvid is a historical fort city in Krishna District, Andhra Pradesh. It was founded by late Meka Basavarayudu, the chieftain of Rani Rudrama Devi of Orugallu dynasty. The original name of this place said to be "NOOJELAVEEDU".

There was a story behind the establishment of this place. One day the chieftain came to this place with his DOGS for hunting. While he was looking around for the hunt, suddenly he found to his surprise that, his DOGS were started chasing by RABBITS! After having witnessed the bravery of the rabits, he realised the power in this soil and has decided to build his fort over here. The "KUKKALAGETU" was built depicting this story. There is a famous and ancient temple called "KOTA MAHA LAKSHMI" temple in the FORT CAMPUS (Near PG Center). There were some stories saying that "KOTA MAHA LAKSHMI" used to guard the FORT from the evil forces and enemies those days. While she was roaming in the fort campus, people used to listen the knee bells of Goddess KOTA MAHA LAKSHMI, during night time.

The city is famous for Rajahs (Kings), Dasara festival, Chedugudu/Kabaddi (rural sports), basketball and variety of mangoes. Nuzvid Chinna Rasalu (a type of small mango) and Pedda Rasalu (large mangos) are world famous. Each Pedda Rasam mango weighs as much as 3 kg and they are very sweet and tasty.

The first film studio of Tollywood Sobhanachala Studio was established at Chennai by a native of Nuzvid.

The first English-Telugu dictionary was prepared by Sankaranarayana with the financial help of Nuzvid Rajahs.

In Andhra history, the first mutiny was held by Nuzvidians against French colonials. Senior Citizens of Nuzvide used to say that this place used to have "BURUJU"s with heavily artillery guarding the security. One of such places was "BODIGATTU". People used to listen the heavy sounds of artillery those days from the place now called "DAMADAMAALA THOTHA". Nuzvid soil cultivated rich history, culture and heritage.
