Bonthapally Veerabhadra Temple History:
According to legend, a long time ago there was only the small temple of Sri Veerabhadra Swamy at Bonthapally. One night, a shepherd passed by this temple, detected someone calling and he turned around and saw Lord Veerabhadra Swamy. He was scared. The Lord told the man that he did not like the location of the temple and that he wanted to change it to another location. therefore, he asked the shepherd to hold him on his shoulder in another place until he got tired. So the shepherd carried the lord on his shoulder and walked a few kilometers and placed him here in this Bonthapally temple.
Then the Lord asked the shepherd to go home without turning around and if he turns around he can become a sculpture. The shepherd left as a result, but as he walked a long way, due to his enthusiasm, he turned around and became a statue. This statue remains there in the village. Then the Lord came in a dream of a priest and village leaders and the same to build him a temple in this place. currently, a large temple stands in this new place.
