Introduction

There is a beautiful Trikuta temple facing North in Jangaon village, Addagutta area near Godavarikhani. All the three shrines here are dedicated to Siva. The special feature of the mandapa in the center of the temple is that it contains a cluster of four pillars in each corner. Thus there are sixteen pillars in the center of the mandapa. The pillars are beautifully carved and decorated with lion brackets. The special feature of the temple is the closed outer pradakshanapatha. To the west of this temple, there is another ruined temple with a garbhagriha and a Mukha mandapa. This Siva temple is completely ruined. To the North of this main temple on the other side of the road, there is another Trikuta temple. The existence of two Trikuta temples reveals the prominence of this place during the Chalukya and Kakatiya times.
