In 1823, Captain Robinson of the Hyderabad Regiment decided to develop a tourist attraction in the region that could remind them of their homeland in England. Initially, the sanctuary was called Keechakadara Wildlife Sanctuary as it was believed to be the exact spot where Bhima, one of the five Pandavas killed Keechaka. The place was later renamed and now serves as a hiking and adventure spot. Also, if you have an affinity for taking photographs, make sure you pack your gear before you head towards this place.
