Kurnool is a city in the state of Andhra Pradesh, India, which formerly served as the capital of Andhra State from 1953 to 1956 and is often called the Gateway of Rayalaseema. It is also famous for diamond hunting, as diamonds can be found in the barren land after the monsoon rains wash away the top layers of soil. Although the area has been inhabited for thousands of years, modern Kurnool was founded in the 16th century CE with the construction of the Konda Reddy Fort. At the 2011 census it had a population of 425,214, making it the fifth largest city in the state.
