Kailasa Dwaram is a hilly area near Srisailam in Andhra Pradesh. The phrase "Gateway to Kailasa" is what the word "Kailasa Dwaram" means. People say it is home to Lord Shiva and a natural way to enter Srisailam. Kailasa Dwaram is one of the best places to visit in Srisailam.

In the past, people going on a trek to the holy Mallikarjuna Swamy Temple in Srisailam would often start their trip on foot at Dwaram. Devotees used this hike to get their minds and spirits ready for the sacred meeting that was coming up.

A lot of pilgrims still choose to do this walk as a way to show their commitment. The path is a peaceful place to relax where people can enjoy the beauty of nature and think about their journey.

During your Srisailam tour package, remember to add Kailasa Dwaram. It is a perfect place to visit. Also, it is ideal if you want to know more about the pilgrimage and the city's old customs. The place will give you a glance at the history and importance of pilgrimage.

History of Kailasa Dwaram

It is essential because it is close to the Srisailam temple. Many people believe that passing the threshold of Kailasa Dwaram is the start of their spiritual journey to Srisailam.

Kailasa Dwaram may have been a police station or a place for travellers to rest in the past. Local people also believe there was a building or other at the entrance. However, there is no solid proof or archaeological evidence about it. There is little history available about the place. Still, the Kailasa is an important way for people to get to the city.
