★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A 1700 Buddhist monastery discovered around 1970s and develop by 1993. Damaged areas are being repaired and rebuilt. The security guard knows his stuff and has been our guide. Told us everything in detail and with lot of enthusiasm. It cost us 30bucks for 3 people. Open on all days and makes for a good evening visit. A little further ahead the road is a nice view point.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We visited this place on the way to Bheemili beach and it was all worth it. Spent some good time walking around and also the climate was pleasant in December. There is a decent footfall at this place and not too crowded.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A Great place and must visit for people visiting Visakhapatnam.
Located in hilltop the monstary is well maintained with nice plantation all around the way. There is entry fees of 30₹ for cars. The Monastery is well preserved although in ruins mostly but once on hilltop there is a completely different feeling. Also there is a view point ahead of Monastery which gives breathtaking views of bay of Bengal and the nearby beaches.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Calm place to visit! Has got pits for water harvesting hence the name Thotlakonda. Believed to have built and lived in, by Goutham Buddha and his disciples. Has a very good eagle viewpoint!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very nice place but very calm. Good maintenance. Beach view is spectacular. Entrance fee for car is 30 rupees and its worth as you can go all places by car otherwise it's too much to walk. Please carry water along with you as no shops will be there. Must visit place.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Such a pleasant place it is.
The history of this place is mesmerizing ?
I would rate 10⭐ if the Google review is having an option to.
But Yes, You don't find any convenience stores over there to buy water or anything that is needed.
The beach view, the historical Buddhist monuments over there are simply superb.
I really loved the way the guide and a guard who explained about that place in a perfect manner that anyone can understand.
