Domakonda Fort
Inside the fort are two palaces, a temple complex, and a lotus pond. The palace's ground floor is made up of arched columns with intricate Mughal-style artwork. The first floor's round columns and flat ceilings are typical Western architecture. The stained paintings in the windows and the wooden building are beautiful.
The primary purpose of the Domakonda Fort was as a strong defensive structure. There are a lot of temples nearby, like the Mahakali Temple and Lord Shiva Temple, both of which were built by the Kakatiya rulers. The temple is on a raised platform, and a beautifully carved Nandi is outside the temple. There are 18 carved stone pillars in the Shiva temple.
The Government of India is in charge of and takes care of the fort and temples in Domakonda.
