Great divine place.

Temple is excellent 👌, but the way to the temple main roads are worst

Nice place

Been there for my friend’s marriage, so heard about the history. Which says, Somarama is one of the five Pancharama Kshetras that are sacred to the Hindu god Shiva. The temple is located in Bhimavaram of West Godavari district in the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh. It is one of the centrally protected monuments of national importance. And there no priest is concerned about the devotees, but the money and tickets that devotees want to buy it. Just to say name and gotra they will ask you to pay ₹50 per person and please those who really want to have a complete magalaharati and Pooja, then you better buy a ticket. If not just go and Take the blessings. (They don’t even do that properly). You should have a clear sense on how to do all these rituals in temple on your visit. Better try to do it yourself. Coming to the Linga, it is a stone( Stalagmite - so called Lime Stone) with a silver kireetam on it. So, on a nut shell, this is a ancient temple localities day with completely improper and irresponsible management and persists.

Very sacred and holistic place . It’s a huge temple with famous lord Siva and one of the pancharamam idol . Do visit this temple and get blessed 😇.
