The
Ramalingeswara Aalayam built by Kalyani Chalukyas, has certain
unique features that set it apart from the rest of Sivaalayas. Its
sculptural wealth is so great that it is luring both devotees and
art lovers. It mesmerises any by its superb craftsmanship and
detains long. The garbha griha is embellished with a star shaped
Vimana, a plus point for merit and displays the builder's refined
taste. The Sivalinga and Nandi are made of black granite, and they
are big and grand. Among the superbly sculptured images, Brahma,
Vishnu, Narasimha, Nataraja, Siva, Garuda, Mahishasuramardini,
Gajalakshmi and Saraswathi deserve special mention and soulful
veneration.
It
lies 20 Km of Sangareddi town of Medak district of Andhra Pradesh
having bus and train facilities.
