As a kid growing up in India, I would hear about the Dandaka Aranya, Dwaraka, Gandharva, Tushara etc.

But where exactly on the map of India are they located ? How far are they from each other ?

Here is an awesome map that hopes to answer some of that :

I had some fun going through some of the names - the ones that got me thinking :
- Andhraka (around Krishna basin)
- Telinga (around Godavari )

I belong to this area and those that do know about the socio-political border dispute going on in the State of Andhra Pradesh between the Telangana and Andhra regions. I did not know those names are derivations of names of ancient kingdoms.
