        Sthala Puran

        The construction of the temple began in 1889 by brothers Dwarampudi Subbi Reddy and Rami Reddy who donated five acres of land and built a small temple with wooden idols of Rama and Sita. Later Kovvuri Basivi Reddy, a local philanthropist took over the temple in 1920. A larger temple was built in 1939. The east and west gopurams were built in 1948–50 and 1956–58 respectively. The east-facing gopuram is 160–170 feet high and has nine storeys and five kalasams. The west-facing gopuram is 200–210 feet high and has 11 storeys and five kalasams.

        A mirror hall (addala mandapam in Telugu) was built between the two mandapams, above the sanctum sanctorum in 1975. The mirror hall has a stucco relief of Sri Rama Pattabhishekam (coronation of Rama) on one side and of Rama blessing Hanuman on the other side. The garbhalayam contains the idols of Rama, Lakshmana, and Sita along with Hanuman.

        There are intricately carved statues depicting scenes from Ramayana, Mahabharata, and Bhagavatam on the four sides of the gopurams in each floor. The Sikhara of the temple is carved with statues depicting Bala Ramayana (childhood of Rama).[2] Devotees can reach the top storey of the gopurams through a 300-step climb.

        Around 200 metres from the temple is a Pushkarini, a small pond of water sourced from the Tulyabhaga river. Water from the Pushkarini is used in various religious ceremonies at the temple.

        This temple was originally built on 16 acres, much of which has been encroached. The temple was managed by Kovvuri Basivi Reddy's descendants till 1991 when it was taken over by the endowments department.
