TEMPLE HISTORY
Once king named Subhamatudu
did penance regarding Lord Vishnu. When Lord Vishnu appeared before him he asked
Lord to stay on his head along with his consort Mahalakshmi. Lord Vishnu told
him to pray for Lord Siva to fulfill his wish. He did so and as a result he took
the shape of a hill which is called as Sobhanachala. According to the wish of Sobhanachala
Lord Siva and Lord Vishnu stayed on that hill.
