The massive Nandi sculpture, carved from a single black basalt rock, sits in the courtyard facing the shrines of Lord Shiva, Vishnu, and Surya.

The Bhadrakali Temple, located between Warangal and Hanamkonda, dates back to the Chalukyan era. The 2.7-meter stone idol of Goddess Bhadrakali sits in a peaceful pose with eight hands, each holding a weapon. The nearby Bhadrakali Lake and natural rock formations make this a serene stop.

For history enthusiasts, the Padmakshi Temple offers a glimpse into 12th-century Kakatiya architecture. The temple’s Annakonda Pillar, a black granite quadrangular pillar, draws visitors interested in ancient engineering and design.
