KRS back waters is peaceful you can go to KRS back waters if you don't want to bump into lot of people and enjoy nature.I have listed a few places which is offbeat and not so touristy
1)Venugopala Swamy temple
This temple very beautiful,For more than 70 years the temple lay underwater now the Khoday Foundation took up the task of relocating and restoring the temple
The peaceful, is covered by water from 3 sides. when the KRS dam water is at the Max level the water comes upto the temple surrounding and looks very beautiful at sunset. Well maintained, basic facilities such as toilets available
