In a significant move to endorse Andhra Pradesh’s rich cultural heritage, the Krishna district administration, in collaboration with the Andhra Pradesh Tourism Department, has announced a comprehensive development plan to transform Kuchipudi village—the birthplace of the eponymous classical dance form—into a tourist hub.
The village has long been a hub for traditional dance and performing arts. It is home to the ancestral homes and schools of legendary dance gurus who have preserved this art form.
