Godavari Pushkaralu at Dharmapuri, Telangana
Dharmapuri is an ancient town located in the Karimnagar district of Telangana, 60 km away from the district headquarters. It is mostly famous for Sri Lakshmi Narasimha Swamy Temple which is situated on the southern banks of Godavari which flows through the town. The most interesting fact of Dharmapuri is that the Godavari river flows from north to south direction unlike west to east in all other places where it flows and hence the river is termed here as Dakshina Vahini. This town is also one of the nine Narasimha Kshetrams. Due to presence of many temples in the area, it is also known as ‘Teertharajamu’. The town was ruled by King Dharma Varma and thus the name of the town was named after him as Dharmapuri.
