Guraza (village code-31) belongs to Mudinepalli Mandal (Mdl code-46) of Krishna District, AP.
This village is located between Mudinepalli and Gudlavalleru. It is closer to Mudinepalli. It is the one time seat of Guraza Zamindar whose ancestors moved here because this village doesn't have mud during monsoon. They were prominent until the Republic of India abolished Zamindari system in India. Guraza is a typical Andhra village. People of all castes, and faiths live here.
Guraza has a Shiva temple, and it is called Koti Lingeswara Swamy temple. It has a Venu Gopala Swamy temple. It has several Ramalayams. There is a Matham (monastery) at the edge of the village. At this Matham about 70 to 100 years ago, a Sadhu (monk) used to live. He used to beg around the village, and distribute the collections to other Sadhus in the village, and the destitutes. The Sadhu is burried at the Matham, and his Samadhi (burial site) is still present.
Currently, Ammani, a native of Guraza is building an Aashram (a retreat / a meditation center) at the edge of the village just opposite the Matham. She also plans to build a school. She is inspired by the teachings of Swami Sri Aurabindo of Pondichery.
Prominent people from the village of Guraza are the Gandhian, Sri Kamaraju Sobhanachalam garu; landlords, Sri Uppalapati Naganna garu, and Uppalapati Brhahmaiah garu; and Vijaya Nirmala the wife of the Telugu movie star Krishna.
Guraza has a Govt. Hospital, a Govt. Maternity hospital, and mansions. One prominent mansion still in good shape is that of Sri Uppalapati Naganna garu.
Recently, Heritage Foods Corporation built a large milk collection center in Guraza. Guraza has aqua culture farms, notably Shrimp farms, and Rice mills.
