Nagarjuna Sagar Dam is about a three-and-a-half hours drive from the city and makes for a short but amazing road trip. The dam offers a refreshing view that makes photographers and Instagram addicts go nuts. You can take a boat ride to Nagarjunakonda Island, which has an archaeological museum and Buddhist artefacts for you to gawk at. The Dam is best to visit when the gates are open, so keep a lookout on the local news for info on this. Carry food from home and make it a day to remember!
