** Bhadrachalam, Telangana
It is believed that Bhadra, son of Maha Meru did
penance for many years in the Dhandakaranya forest, on the banks of the river
Godavari. Lord Ramachandra gave darsan to him and in recognition of his
devotion fulfilled his wish and made this place His permanent abode with sita
and Lakshmana, to bless devotees who resort to His worship.
This temple, according to tradition was built by a great Rama Bhakta-Ramadas, a thasildar, with Government money. He was imprisoned by the Nawab,for building this temple by appropriation of Government funds, and was kept in a solitary cell in Golconda Fort. Sri Rama came in human form and got him released by paying the money due to the state.
It is one of the important Rama temples of India, situated in Andhra Pradesh. The main deity “Sri Ramachandra” has four hands with Sanku, Chakra, Bow and Arrow. Sita is seated on Rama’s lap and Lakshmana is seen standing a distance away.
