The temple is built in the year 1213 A.D. by 'Recherla
Rudraiah'. This historical temple attracts tourist from India and abroad as it
is known for its architectural and sculptural beauty. The sculptures were
encraved according to the postures mentioned by Jayapa Senani in his famous
work 'Nruthya Ratnavali'. The postures pertaining to Bharata Natya, Shrunga,
Bharunga, Rathi, Perini Nritya etc., are encraved on the pillars and top-beams
of 'Mukha Mandapam', The mythological episodes such as 'Gopika Vastrapaharanam,
Tripura samharm, Daksha Samharam, Ksheera Sagara Madhanam, Girija Kalyanam
etc., stand for the highest standards of Kakatiya Sculpture. The 'Nagini' and
other eleven devanarthakis are arranged as supporting beams on both sides of
each entrance. The aesthetic sense which scaledinnumerable heights in Kakatiya
sculpture is clearly evident in these twelve postures of deva narthakis. The
Mudras and Bhangimas have highly inspired the dance master Dr.Natraja
Ramakrishna in giving shape to the historical classical dance 'Perini Siva
Thandavam'. The Ramappa lake adjacent to the temple covering natural plant and
zoo fauna will certainly become a feast to the eyes of every tourist.
