CHEBROLU - NAGESWARASWAMY AALAYAM

Famous for possessing one of the very few Aalayas for Brahma, this little town boasts of a holy Sivaalaya enshrining a Sivalinga, going by the name of Nageswaralinga. Deemed as Kasi for having one hundred and one temples, this town had a glorious past with historical evidence in the form of inscriptions. Now only eight are existing, but they too are not properly maintained. This Nageswaraalayam houses in its campus a big size Nandi equal to Lepakshi one in polish and furnish. This was built by Eastern Chalukyas. The fine sculpture adorning the walls and vimana are quite impressive.
