Anakapalle — Travel Guide
A part of the Visakhapatnam district in the south Indian state of Andhra Pradesh, Anakapalle, was initially under the rule of Kalinga dynasty. It was only in the later period that the town went under the Gajapati, Kakatiya, and Qutub Shahi empires. In around mid 15th century, Appalaraju came to power under the Nawab of Arcot. Today, a temple built by him attracts a large number of devotees from all over Andhra Pradesh on the Telugan New year. This temple was dedicated to Kakatambika, a family goddess of Appalaraju, however, the later rulers of the region renamed the deity Nookambika, or Nookalamma.
