This is a very famous Shiva temple in Telangana. People of TG often visit this temple with family. The govt should have taken measures to maintain cleanliness within and around the temple. As the crowd is more you wouldn't find the place clean. Pilgrims need to be educated more to maintain the cleanliness. Also the rain water is stored below the temple building and it gives bad smell.

Vemulawada was the capital of the Vemulawada Chalukyas who ruled from 750 to 973 CE. Sri Raja Rajeswara Temple is one of the most famous Hindu temples dedicated to Lord Shiva who is locally popular as Rajanna who is adorned with Sri Raja Rajeswari Devi and Sri Laxmi Sahitha Siddi Vinayaka.

Pilgrims have a divine bath in a holy tank called Dharma Gundam, before proceeding for darshan and these holy waters are believed to have medicinal properties. This temple also has a very special offering made by devotees called' Kode Mokku'. Kode Mokku is a ritual where the devotee makes the pradakshinam of the temple with a kode (bull) which is vahanam (Nandi) of Lord Shiva. Inside is a massive Siva Linga.

Worst management and maintanence ever. The officers are easily bribed. Free Darshan line is interrupted frequently and the officers make space for the so called vip's. There are people entering through emergency exits. Shame on staff... This is exactly what makes hinduism look bad. I feel very bad about this. The surroundings of the temple is not clean and tidy. There are tens of thousands of people visiting this temple every day. So the government has to acknowledge the hardships and answer the people by enlarging the roads and implement a proper system. Even the officers are rude to the devotees. What happened to "All are equal before God?" I know justice is not always served and not only good happens. But there is always a level and limit to what common people can sustain. This crossed all the limits and levels of ridiculousness. And nothing can be done as we were seeing corruption right before our eyes. Nobody raises voice. If they did they are silenced. I stood on line for 4 hours in free darshan. There is no service. No water to say the least. The water is provided at only one section in the whole temple. And even that is not clean, tidy and drinkable. Overal, Worst experience ever. If you want to have a nice experience in this temple, take ₹ 100.00/- ticket. I doubt even that is worth it. I wish all of the people who have encountered the same experience to raise their voice.

Jai Hind.

One of the most FAMOUS Lord Shiva (Rajanna) Temple in Vemulawada, Telangana. It is 180 Kms away from Hyderabad very crowded huge number of people come here in every season. Devotees believe that Lord Shiv fulfills his wishes of devotees by doing Kode Mokku, we felt blessed & very pleasent with temple atmosphere, After Darshanam of Rajanna Temple Must visit Baddi Pochamma Temple, and Sri Bheemeshwara Temple. Because of these places are so pleasant atmosphere and peaceful environment. & near by only. "Om namah shivaya"

One of the famous Lord Shiva Temple
Which is called as Sri Raja Rajeshwara Swamy Temple.
one of the ancient and famous Shiva temples located in Telangana.
Local people called Lord Shiva as Rajanna and the main idol of Shiva is Neela Lohitha Siva Lingam.
And
Devotees carry out the unique ritual of Kode Mokku,
the tying of ox and taking around the temple.
People believe that Lord Rajanna fulfills the wishes of devotees when devotees take the ox around the temple. After taking the ox around the temple, devotees hand over the ox to the temple authorities.
It is believed that major income of Vemulawada temple comes from Kode Mokku.
Newly married couples comes and go around the temple with ox.
After Darshanam of Rajanna Temple people visits
Baddi Pochamma Temple with Hence , Goats and Sheeps.

The beauty of this place is there is a Darga inside the temple. Very famous for Lord Shiva and Godess Raja Rajeshwari Devi. You will also find temples of Lord Sri Rama Chandra, Anantha Padmanabha Swamy and a lot of other small temples.

Place is very famous for farmers bringing their ox as an offering Pooja which is a ritual. It was very nice to see that, though I did not get exact details of ritual.

One thing which I felt needs a whole lot of improvement is the way in which temple and its surroundings are maintained. Parking is a major issue. Cleanliness has to improve leaps and bounds. While I can say Govt or Temple Authorities have to be responsible, above all I feel we the pilgrims who visit should equally be responsible towards maintenance of such Devine places.

This is my second visit to this temple after a gap of 4 years and I did not see anything change in its maintenance or surroundings. Hope next visit will be better, if I get to visit again 🤞
