The hill fort and Raja Venkatappa Nayaka palace of Shorapur (Surapura), capital of the Bedar Nayaka palegars from 1639 to 1857 — whose last ruler Venkatappa Nayaka was among the earliest 1857-era rebels against the British; the colonial Taylor Manzil of Meadows Taylor stands on the same hill.

A group of four hills near Shahapur whose combined silhouette resembles a reclining (sleeping) Buddha — a scenic geological landmark and a growing offbeat viewpoint of the Kalyana-Karnataka plateau.
