Krishnadevaraya, the ruler of Vijayanagar, is said to have gone to Srirangam and been amazed by the Sri Ranganayakaswamy Temple there. He wanted to build a temple for the god Ranganayakaswamy in his kingdom. Later, Lord Vishnu (Ranganayaka) came to the king in a dream and told him that his idol was in the kingdom and that an eagle would lead him there. The next day, Krishnadevaraya followed the eagle and found the Lord's idol between the Kothakota and Kanvayapally mountains. Near RatnaPushkariniLake, the king built the SriRanganayakaswamyTemple. The temple is a great example of the architecture of Vijayanagar. The Rajas of Wanaparthi Samsthanam built the temple on the edge of Ratna Pushpakarini lake.
