Warangal was the capital of the medieval Kakatiya dynasty (12th–14th century), one of the most powerful Telugu kingdoms. The Kakatiya Kala Thoranam (Warangal Fort Gate) has become an iconic symbol of Telangana state. The nearby Ramappa Temple (Rudreswara Temple) was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2021 — its floating bricks and extraordinary sculptural programme are truly remarkable. The 1000-pillar temple is another Kakatiya masterpiece.
