    Bhavani Island was once the seat of the early Chola governors and is famous for the 12th century stone inscription that records land grants to the local temple. A quick walk to the island’s small museum shows the original copper plates. If you have time, a short drive to the nearby Guntur Fort, built in the 16th century, gives a good contrast of fortification styles in the region.
