Srisailem is a lovely town, an important Hindu pilgrim centre and unusually clean. We were pleased to be offered toilet roll, as the last few places had no idea what it was! (Don't worry we're carrying supplies!) After the surprisingly tiring bus journey, we has a restful morning of sightseeing and a boat trip 16kms upstream to the Akkamahadevi Caves.

It's a beautiful setting under a natural arch, and was made famous by a woman who meditated inside the cave for a great number of years. There are several devotees there today, destined to spend the rest of their lives meditating in the caves. It should be a tranquil place but for the daily boatloads of (domestic) tourists making their own pilgrimages. The water would be great for a cooling dip as long as you can out-swim a crocodile!
