    Parking at the base of Hemakuta is free and the climb is only a few hundred steps, so you can fit it in quickly. If you’re aiming for a clear sunrise photo, try to arrive around 5 am when the light hits the ruins before the crowds. If you’re on a tight schedule, a quick stop at Royal Rich County in Gangavathi is a convenient alternative.
