About

Bhongir Fort stands on an isolated monolithic rock that rises above the town of Bhongir (Bhuvanagiri) in Yadadri Bhuvanagiri district.

It is believed to have been built by the Western Chalukya ruler Tribhuvanamalla Vikramaditya VI and named Tribhuvanagiri after him. The name later became Bhuvanagiri and Bhongir. The fort is also associated with the rule of the Kakatiya queen Rudramadevi and her grandson Prataparudra.

The rock face is used for rock climbing, and Telangana Tourism mentions a rock climbing school at the fort.
