This Temple is located on the left bank of River Godavari in Bhadrachalam Town of Telangana State. The Presiding Deity is Sri Ramachandra Swamy who is considered as an incarnation of Maha Vishnu. Bhadrachalam derives its name from Bhadragiri Hills and is considered to be Nature's Beauty. The Temple has 4 entrances and around 50 steps to be climbed to reach the Temple. Ramayana is beautifully portrayed in white colour on the Saffron walls of the Temple. The Shikara Crowning of the Temple is carved from a Single Granite Block weighing nearly 36 Tonnes. It dates back to the 17th Century and is supposed to be built by the then Thasildhar and later a Saint, Gopanna of this area.
The Sanctum is considered to be Swayambhu. Sri Rama is seen sitting here in Padmasana Posture with Goddess Seetha on His lap and Lakshmana standing left to Him. Bhadrachalam and its sorrounding areas in those days were dense forests known as Dhandakaranya. The Parnasala where Sri Rama, Seetha and Lakshmana lived is closeby to the main Temple. The footprints of Seetha Devi are still said to be preserved here. A replica of the Golden Deer and an image of Ravana are found there. There are two Shrines for Sri Anjaneya and they are called as Sri Abhaya Anajaneya and Sri Dasa Anjaneya. There are Sub Shrines for Goddess Mahalakshmi and Andal. A replica of Sabari offering fruits to Sri Rama is depicted outside the Main entrance as Sabari Moksham. It is a habit here that the Abhishekam in the main Sanctum is performed only to Sri Rama's Feet. Adi Sankaracharya had visited Bhadrachalam and had named the Main Deity as Sri Vaikuntha Raman.
The Brahmmothsavam, Sri Rama Navami and Vijayadasami attracts lakhs of Devotees. There are several shops around the Temple Complex and apart from the Temple Cottages there are several other Hotels for the Devotees to stay.
