This temple is dedicated to the Serpent lord, Kartikeya, located at the foothills of Indrakiladri hills. This is the only temple in the vicinity that offers the image of three different forms of Lord Subramanya. The idols are carved out of a striking white stone and decorated with intricate embellishing.
Located in the temple precincts is a Garuda pillar, covered entirely in silver, which holds immense significance for devotees. Another striking feature of this temple is an anthill that is located close to the temple and is believed to be a habitat of snakes, regularly worshipped by the people who come here.
