Dhowleswaram is a prominent place in the Godavari delta. It is here that the majestic River Godavari assumes the shape of the geometrical figure of a triangle. The Vasishta River, which is on the west delta, forms the boundary between the two districts of East and West Godavari.
The landscape west of Vasishta is West Godavari, and locales east of it fall under the jurisdiction of East Godavari. The twain indeed do not meet, just a physical contiguity.
West Godavari district or Paschima Godavari Jilla (as it is known in Telugu) is one of the 26 districts of Andhra Pradesh. The administrative headquarters of the district is the viridescent town of Eluru. The town is sandwiched by Krishna district on the west, East Godavari (on the east), and the gargantuan Bay of Bengal on the south.
History The Chalukyas were once the potentates of coastal Andhra (700 AD-1200 AD), with Vengi as their capital. Historical evidences of the empire have been discovered in the villages of Pedavegi and Guntupalli (Jilakarragudem).
