Jangareddygudem is a dynamic and religiously significant municipality and revenue division headquarters located in the Eluru district of Andhra Pradesh, serving as a critical gateway to the region’s green uplands. Unlike the flood-prone delta areas, this town sits on undulating terrain with an average elevation of 74 meters, characterized by low hills and well-drained soils that contribute to its unique climate and agricultural profile. The town’s religious identity is deeply rooted in the Sri Venkateswara Swami Temple, affectionately known as the Parijathagiri Temple, which is perched on one of the cluster of seven local mountains—a rare geographical feature in Andhra Pradesh often likened to the sacred hills of Tirumala Tirupati. Economically, Jangareddygudem plays a vital role in the state’s agriculture, specifically as a prominent market and the pioneering location for the electronic auctioning of Flue-cured Virginia (FCV) tobacco under the central government’s Tobacco Board, besides supporting horticulture like mango, cashew, and citrus cultivation. As a core transport hub, the town is strategically connected by State Highways, featuring an APSRTC bus depot that links the agency areas to the rest of the state, solidifying its position as a bustling commercial and administrative center amidst the natural tranquility of the Eastern Ghats foothills.
