A very old Hanuman Temple can be found on the Padmarao Nagar main road, towards [[Musheerabad]].

A new layout which emerged off the Padmarao Nagar main road in 1984 was named Abhinava Nagar. This layout was previously used as farm land for growing quality leafy vegetables. Eventually, this layout housed the renowned [[Telugu language|Telugu]] University for a few years before a CRPF camp was established in the buildings, which is now replaced by the Pulse Hospital .

Padmarao Nagar is infamous for its large [[monkey]] population, which are known to cause havoc in the residential complexes.

It is also famous for reading rooms for students preparing for Medical and other competitive exams. A large number of medical students live in this area. Many national PG medical coaching institutes like [https://pgiams.com PGIAMS], DBMCI and PRIME have their Hyderabad offices in Padmarao Nagar.
