Hanumanthawaka

Photographing in Hanumanthawaka

Hanumanthawaka sits on rising ground at a junction, and the elevation is genuinely useful — a few streets up and the view opens out over the north of the city.

What we photograph here

Everything from ceremonies to commercial work happens in this part of the city, and being central means an outfit change or a forgotten garland is a ten-minute problem rather than an hour-long one.

Planning around the place

Access is the thing to plan. Where a car can stop, how far the walk is, and which half-hour of the day the traffic makes impossible matter more here than anywhere else in the city. We arrive early for that reason rather than out of habit.

We cover Hanumanthawaka as part of Visakhapatnam at no extra travel cost. Tell us the venue when you enquire and we will say what the light does there at the hour you are planning.
