At the 3 Coringa Wildlife Sanctuary Draksharamam Temple, Shiva is worshipped as Bhimeshwara Swamy, along with his 4 Vijaya Picture Palace consort Manikyamba. The temple is also considered to be one of the Maha Shakti Peetha in India. Draksharama Temple along 5 Bhimeswara Theatre with Ksheerarama Temple in Palakol, Somarama Temple in Bhimavaram, Amararama Temple in Amaravathi and Kumararama Temple in Samalkota forms the Pancharama Kshetram in Andhra Pradesh. These five temples are considered to be powerful Shiva temples in Southern India. It is believed that this temple was built by the angels in a day. But they couldn't finish the outer wall before sunrise, which still stands incomplete. Numerous attempts to rebuild the missing part has been in vain. Historical evidence suggests the building of the temple began in 800 ADE and completed sometime in the 11th century. The temple architecture is one of a kind and still studied by students of Architecture. It has a two stair mandapa with delicately carved pillars. The inner sanctum is exquisitely carved. Chronicles of many kingdoms, that ruled over the century, have been carved onto the temple walls. The inner sanctum has a very large crystal Shiva Lingam which is one of the longest Shiva lingams in the world..

Phone: +91 92468 14399, +91 90004 18895 Mail: [email protected] Web: www.getsetgotravels.in The Pancharama Kshetras or the (Pancharamas) are five ancient Hindu temples of Lord Shiva situated in Andhra Pradesh. These Sivalingas are formed out of one single Sivalinga. As per the legend, this five Sivalingas were one which was owned by the Rakshasa King Tarakasura. None could win over him due to the power of this Sivalinga. In a war between deities and Tarakasura, Kumara Swamy and Tarakasura were face to face. Kumara Swamy used his Sakthi aayudha to kíll Taraka. By the power of Sakti aayudha the body of Taraka was torn into pieces. But to the astonishment of Lord Kumara Swamy all the pieces reunited to give rise to Taraka. Kumara Swamy repeatedly broke the body into pieces and it was re-unified again and again. This confused Lord Kumara Swamy and was in an embarrassed state then Lord Sriman-Narayana appeared before him and said “Kumara! Don’t get depressed, without breaking the Shiva lingham worn by the asura you can’t kíll him” you should first break the Shiva lingam into pieces, then only you can kíll Taraka Lord Vishnu also said that after breaking, the shiva lingha it will try to unite. To prevent the Linga from uniting, all the pieces should be fixed in the place where they are fallen by worshiping them and erecting temples on them. By taking the word of Lord Vishnu, Lord Kumara Swamy used his Aagneasthra (weapon of fire) to break the Shiva lingha worn by Taraka, Once the Shiva lingha broke into five pieces and was trying to unite by making Omkara nada (Chanting Om).
