About Gutta
Raghupati Gutta (రఘుపతి గుట్ట) is very famous for the Jaatara(జాతర) celebrated every year on the day of Sri Rama Navami in and around D.Dharmaram village.
On the top of the big rock on the gutta, there is a small place on corner where we could find small holes which people calls as once upon a time, sita came there and played Kachha Kayalu on that holy big rock. Even just below this big rock we could find, Vishnu Chakra. There is a small gap between two rocks on this gutta, people on the Jaatara day, went through this path way with the belief that all their problems will go away in that coming year.
