NIZAMABAD -  NILAKANTESWARA SWAMY AALAYAM

This district head quarters town of the same name possesses many holy temples dedicated to several gods, like Venkateswara, Ranganatha, Hanuma and Rama, besides Siva, which has the unique glory of worshipping by the Sun with his luminous rays once a year. This holy town has once called Indrapuri, which became Indur and later Nizambad due to impact of Muslim rule. The Venkateswaraswamy Aalayam here claims the special honour of sending its flag to Tirupathi every year on a particular occasion, and on its return devotees, who could not travel to the Tirumala worship it with great ardor. With these two plus points, it has been luring pious theists for over centuries. It also houses worshipful Saiva gods in appropriate niches.

It lies on the Kachiguda-Manmad Broad guage line, having all facilities.
