Why this temple matters

Built in 1213 CE under the Kakatiya dynasty and named after its sculptor Ramappa, this is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its sculpture, especially the dancers and bracket figures, is among the finest in the Deccan.

The story

It is one of the few Indian temples known by the name of its master craftsman rather than its patron. Tradition holds that the bricks of its tower are light enough to float on water.

What to look for

  • The bracket figures of dancers (madanikas) on the outer pillars
  • Polished black stone pillars inside
  • Ramappa lake nearby

Festivals and when to go

  • Maha Shivaratri

The practical truth

  • Combine with Warangal's Thousand Pillar Temple and fort.

Timings, rules and festival dates change. We confirm the current details for every yatra.
