This Majestic #Snake Shaped Temple Amid The Lush Green Hills Is A Hidden Gem Near Hyderabad, Telangana.
Not far from the #Nampally bus stop, lies a magnificent temple that is shaped like a gigantic orange snake. The temple lies amid the lush green hills of Telangana and falls on
the path leading to the hilltop shrine, the #Lakshmi_Narasimha_Swamy Temple. The Lakshmi Narasimha Swamy Temple is within a walking distance of around 15 minutes from the #Vemulawada#Karimnagar highway. On the head of the snake temple, there is a statue of Lord Krishna.
The temple would remind one of the tale of Lord Krishna dancing on the head of the demon serpent Kaliya. This shrine is at a distance of around 150 kilometres from Hyderabad.

One Can Enter The Temple Through The Abdomen Of The Snake

Interestingly, the entry to the temple is
through the abdomen of the snake. The snake sits in a curled-up position and visitors can walk through the serpentine tunnel with statues of mythological figures on both sides. The story of Prahalada and Hiranyakasipu is depicted through the statues. At the edge of the
lies the life-like statue of Lord Narasimha killing the king of demons, Hiranyakasipu. Deities of Naga Devatha are also present inside the shrine. Near the entrance of the temple, lies an idol of Bhagawan Narasimha..!!
