Neglected Kakatiya temple tank cries for attention in Hanamkonda

Hanamkonda: A rare Kakatiya temple tank (stepwell) located at Pedda Kodepaka village of Shayampet mandal in the district is in a state of neglect. The temple tank, which measures 50 ft in length, 30 ft in width, and 30 ft in depth, was constructed using meticulously carved granite stones.

 Its stepped entrance, adorned with exquisite door



frames, presents a sight to behold, even in its current displaced condition.

The temple tank houses a beautiful shrine dedicated to Lord Ganesha. 

What sets it apart is the presence of a balcony encircling the tank, allowing devotees to leisurely circumnavigate the holy site and receive a comfortable darshan of Ganesha.
