    You could also stop by the small museum at the Srisailam gate it has panels from the 8th century Chalukya period that show how the iconography evolved before the Vijayanagara additions. After that, a quick walk to the watchtowers in Kurnool lets you see the fortifications that once guarded the route. Does anyone know if the temple office offers a guide who can explain the Prakrit panels at the base of the sanctum?
