Chaya Someswara Swamy temple, Hindu temple in Panagal, India

The Chaya Someswara Temple features ornate stone carvings, detailed sculptures, and traditional Dravidian architectural elements across its main shrine and surrounding structures.

Built in the 7th century during the Kanduru Choda dynasty rule, this temple underwent modifications during the Kakatiya period as evidenced by inscriptions.
