Once Krishna Deva Raya went to Sri Rangam and wanted to construct Ranganayaka Swamy temple in his kingdom. On that night he dreamt of ‘Ranganayaka’ telling him that he is in a particular place in the kingdom and one eagle will lead him to that place. Next day Krishna Deva Raya followed the eagle and found Ranganayaka Swami’s idol between Kothakota & Kanvayapally mountains. Then the temple was built near "Ratna Pushkarini’ lake. From then poojas are regularly performed and prasadam is distributed at 10 a.m. every day. Sri Rangapur is situated at a distance of 12 kms. from Wanaparthy, which is 100 kms from Mahbubnagar. Srirangapur is well connected by road and there are frequent buses from Wanaparthy. Private transport is available from Wanaparthy.
