"An architectural marvel, the Ramappa Temple and its adjacent Ramappa
tank – a medieval engineering art piece of the 13th century both are
exemplary works depicting the heights and style in the field of
architecture and art achieved in the Kakatiya era. The Ramappa tank is
a properly planned water pool made up of a 2000 ft deep earthen dam
linking the semi circular series of hills, which makes up a lake.

Perhaps the only temple in India to be named after its main sculptor,
Ramappa – a Vishwakarma Brahmin Sthapathi of Karnataka;"
