This is one of my best and favorite place in Telengana. In my earlier visit, I stumbled upon by locality of this place., it was full of greeneries, mountains and lakes. So decided to have a second trip to that place.
Around 2.30 PM started from Bowenbally, and on the way, had enough snacks to keep my momentum in peek. The Hyderabad to KarimNagar Highway is too good, the road is very neat and smooth.
Reached Shanigaram around 5.30 PM in short period of time (thanks to my driver., actually he is an auto driver).
Shanigaram Lake is a vast one, with the recent rain, it was filled completely. The dam on that lake was built in Nizam period and recently Telengana Government started a project called 'Shanigaram Reservoir Project'. Shanigaram Village is just 25KM away from Siddipet and 125KM away from Hyderabad.

But now having a decent high end phone, willing to share some pretty good quality pictures.
While roaming around that Shanigaram lake, we have noticed a small temple under a King's tree., seems it was not maintained properly. Also there is no proper way to go inside that temple.,it was partially blocked and due to fear of snakes, we didn't try to go inside.
Exact opposite to this temple., a completely destroyed mandapa was present. The pillars are carved with some beautiful designs. Not sure why the people not showing any interest to save that temple or reconstruct it.
There are some stones have the god images which are completely abandoned. Its look like Maha Vishnu's carving.
Under this tree only the temple is located. The tree is so big one. I have asked few elders who crossed that temple., they said the main god was 'Bhimeswara'., a Siva avatar. They said that no one is willing to construct because of the bad elements are thieves around the area prohibiting those initiatives.
The following map showing the exact location of this place. You can see that big tree in this satellite image.
