Photo Of The Fortnight

Nirmala Garimella
02/01/2006

This photograph was captured at Medak Fort in Andhra Pradesh . As we parked our car at the entrance of the fort, monkeys strolled by, climbed on top our car and rested.

Medak Fort - More of an outpost of Telangana, Medak, earlier called Siddapur, has a citadel dating back to the Kakatiyas. It was built during the reign of Kakatiya emperor Prataparudra. Strategically built on a hillock, it was called the Methukudurgam, from the telugu word Methuku - meaning cooked rich grain.
