    You might want to stop by the small museum right at the Srisailam gate. It has a few 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 has a guide who can explain the Prakrit panels at the base of the sanctum?
