History

The temple was built around the 7th century by the Chalukyas and later expanded by the Vijayanagara kings. A perennial spring keeps the temple tanks (kalyani) full of clear, constant-temperature water in which devotees bathe. Mahanandi is the main shrine of the nine Nandi temples around Nandyal.
