Amalapuram

Rajahmundry was founded in the 11th century by Raja Raja Narendra. The climate is mostly hot and humid, with mostly a tropical climate and therefore no distinct seasons. The mean maximum temperature is 36 °C. The hottest season is from April to June, with temperatures ranging from 34 -48 °C -- with maximum of 51 °C recorded in May 2007. The coolest months are December and January, when it is pleasant at 27 –30 °C. There is a lot of rain due to the monsoon and cyclonic storms in the Bay of Bengal. Like the rest of Andhra Pradesh, Telugu is the major language here. However, almost everyone can understand a few words in English and it should be sufficient for basic conversations and transactions. Local people born after 1980 may be able to converse in fluent English as that language has been taught in the schools for many years.
