The Bala Brahmendra Swamy temple is the main deity. Though the crown of the linga seems broken, it has a pleasant energy. The Jogulamba temple was shifted inside this complex in the 16th Century to protect it from attackers. That part is accessible on the left side. This has a phenomenal energy, vibrant and pulsating even today. Don't miss spending some time here.
