== History ==

=== Chandragiri fort ===
{{Main article|Chandragiri Fort, Andhra Pradesh}}

Chandragiri is now famous for the historical [[fort]], built in the 11th century, and the Raja Mahal (Palace) within it. The fort encircles eight ruined temples of [[Saivite]] and [[Vaishnavite]] pantheons, Raja Mahal, Rani Mahal and other ruined structures.

The Raja Mahal Palace is now an archaeological museum. The fort and palace are in the care of the [[Archaeological Survey of India]]. The palace is open to the public, but the fort is closed. The palace is an example of [[Indo-Saracenic|Indo-Sarcen]] architecture of the Vijayanagar period. The palace was constructed using stone, brick, lime mortar and devoid of timber.<ref name=asi /> The crowning towers represents the Hindu architectural elements.

Chandragiri was under the rule of [[Vijayanagara Empire|Vijayanagar]] from 1367. It came into prominence during Saluva Narasimha Rayalu. Chandragiri was the 4th capital of Vijayanagar Empire. Rayas shifted their capital to here when Golconda sultans attacked Penukonda. In 1646, the fort was annexed to the [[Golkonda]] territory.

The Mysore king ordered the Palaygara (feudatory ruler) Bisaya nayaka who took aid from Mysore Kingdom after decline of Vijayanagara Empire. Bisaya nayaka of Harapanayakanahalli, present Mulbagal (T) Kolar (D) of Karnataka, Waged a war against the sultan of Chandragiri fort in which he and his army killed every one inside the fort. (there is myth that only the nose rings collected from dead Muslim women were 3 full bamboo bucket, which is sealed in 2 stone locker in [[Kurudumale]] Village, Karnataka) Later after the death of sulthan it subsequently came under [[Mysore]] rule. It went into oblivion from 1792 onward.<ref name=asi>{{cite web
