Hanamakonda

Hanamakonda is a city in Telangana located in the central part of the state, forming part of a tri-city region with Warangal and Kazipet. The area is characterized by historic temples that stand out in the landscape and shape the urban environment.

The Kakatiya Dynasty established their first capital here in the 12th century before moving to Warangal. This marked a significant shift in regional power and development.

The temples dominate the city's character, and you notice their religious importance in daily life and in how people move through the streets. Visitors see how the sacred sites shape traditions and social gatherings year after year.

The city is easily accessible via the national highway network, with regular bus services connecting to other towns in the region. You will find frequent connections to Warangal and neighboring areas.

The Padmakshi Temple sits on a natural rock formation, merging structural elements with cave sections in an unusual way. This blend of natural and built features creates a distinctive character found nowhere else in the region.
