    If you’re heading straight from the airport, a quick stop at the Sri Devarajaswami Temple right after Anantapur keeps the drive to Lepakshi and the Belum Caves in a single day. The temple sits about 2 km from the city, so you can park nearby and walk. After Lepakshi, the caves are just 30 km south a short drive that lets you finish the loop before dark. If you need a place to stay near the temple, Hotel O Anantapur is only a few minutes away.
