The Borra Caves are undoubtedly one of the most unique and fascinating natural wonders that I have visited. Located in the Ananthagiri Hills of the Araku Valley, these caves are easily accessible by both road and rail. The Borra Guhalu train station provides a direct route to the caves, making the journey convenient and scenic. Upon arrival, visitors should be prepared for a short walk from the parking area to the entrance. Along the way, you can explore local handicraft shops and enjoy some bamboo delicacies, which add to the cultural experience of the visit. It’s also important to note that the ticket counter closes for an hour from 12 noon to 1 PM, so plan your visit accordingly to avoid any inconvenience.
As you make your way inside the Borra Caves, the first set of steps leads you down to a viewpoint that offers a breathtaking panorama of the surrounding valley and river. The lush green forests, the sound of flowing water, and the majestic hills provide a serene and picturesque backdrop. However, be cautious of the monkeys in the area, as they are known to snatch items from visitors. The real adventure begins as you descend further into the caves, where the true scale and beauty of this natural wonder reveal themselves.
The Borra Caves are massive, with multiple levels that take you deeper into their labyrinthine structure. The first level offers a bird's-eye view of the cave, where colorful lights illuminate the stunning formations within. From this vantage point, you can appreciate the vastness of the caves, as they stretch into the distance beyond what the eye can see. Water trickles down the rock walls, adding to the mystique of the environment. For elderly visitors or those who prefer not to venture too far, this level provides a satisfactory experience. However, for the more adventurous, descending to the base of the cave is a must. It's only when you reach the bottom that you truly grasp the depth and enormity of the caves. The walls are adorned with various carvings and prehistoric paintings, offering a glimpse into the history and significance of the site.
As you continue exploring, the path eventually splits into two directions. One leads up a flight of stairs to an ancient Shivalinga, a sacred relic that suggests the cave's historical use as a place of worship. The other path takes you further into the depths of the cave, eventually leading to a dead end. Even though the passage closes off, you can still see that the cave extends beyond, with narrow and potentially dangerous spaces ahead. Along the way, you'll encounter more trickling water and a natural vent in the cave's roof, from which plant roots and water have entered. This blend of natural beauty and historical significance makes the Borra Caves a mesmerizing experience.
In conclusion, the Borra Caves are a must-visit destination for anyone traveling to Visakhapatnam. The caves are not only a testament to the region's natural beauty but also a window into the past, showcasing the history of our ancestors. Exceptionally well-maintained and offering a truly immersive experience, the Borra Caves are a remarkable site that leaves visitors in awe of the natural world. Whether you're a nature lover, history enthusiast, or simply looking for an unforgettable adventure, the Borra Caves should be at the top of your itinerary.

The caves are really amazing. What is disgusting is that many of the visitors are very noisy and unscrupulous. What's more, some stalagmite was found smeared with vermilion and worshipped as Shivalinga, making the place dirty. The administration should take a small entry fee, and keep the place clean.

Though the natural caves are marvels of nature, the lighting inside was terrible, The place looked like disco den with all bright colourful lights. The authorities have definitely not taken expert opinion on this matter. And as usual, washrooms were bad and stinking. No proper cafes.

As one enters the caves can not help marvel this natural creation. At some points the ceilings are quite high. Be careful to take each step as it could be moist at times. Simply amazing.

Borra caves are a great tourist attraction about 90kms from Visakhapatnam. It's 150 million years old and over the period stalagmites and stalactites have been formed. The famous bamboo chicken is available on the pathway leading to the caves. Beware of the monkeys as they may snatch away bottle or snacks.
While the caves are wonderful to walk, better public management would have enhanced the experience. They were tourists who would make loud noises.
The most distracting are the colourful spotlights. They change colours every few seconds and we cannot appreciate the caves well. It would be nice if the authorities focus on just one kind of colour - white or translucent yellow. Even the pictures will come out well.

The place is good, but the overall experience is not that great.
The booking counter service is very bad. They did not accept gpay or credit card, insisting on cash. And when we pay cash they will not have change to give balance. And while we were scrambling to find change they put up the counter closed board saying it’s lunch time now. The staff was not at all helpful or friendly towards tourists and was behaving as if we were troubling them by asking for a ticket and they were doing us a giant favour. Before entering the place itself we question ourselves as to why we decided to come here.
The caves as such is good. However there are lots of stairs to climb and at many places it becomes very narrow and uneven. The same stairs are used for both entry and exit so navigating the steps safely was our main activity once inside rather than the actual viewing of the caves or it’s beauty. It can be very exhausting.
Parking near the caves is also a problem. Only cars are allowed till near the entry, but even then you may end up parking quite far away. People coming by tempo travellers or bus will have to get down more than a kilometer away and take a shared auto. We had to pay Rs200 for one way for one shared auto. Again after exploring the caves and getting thoroughly exhausted we will have to struggle to find another share auto to take us back.
Overall the experience was not great. Not worth it to travel this much to see the place. The huge crowd shoving each other around will take away any sense of awe you feel when you enter.

If you have a baby knapsack /back pack it should not be a problem if both your hands are free. However be careful, it is wet and slippery. but as I said in my review there is a good banister to hold on to all the time except about 10 steps. I have 3 torn ligaments in my knee so was initially wary and very cautious. but it was quite easy
i am sure if you and your spouse are careful, it should be fine

When I reach vizag. Which area should I stay so that I can take any transportation (easily available) to go to Araku valley & Bora Bora caves ??? I wanted to see Both the places on different days since I'm staying for 4 days in vizag. Is my plan good or should I see both the places by train provided by APTDC railways on a single day trip. Kindly help !!!
撰写日期：2019年7月18日
You can stay close to railway station. There are some good hotels within 1 km of the station. Take early morning kirandul passenger (you can reserve tickets). After finishing Vorta caves you can go to araku. Take any way but don't miss train journey from Vizag to Bora caves.
