The temple complex has temples of Adi Lakshmi Devi Temple and Chenchu Lakshmi Devi. It is the only temple where all the nine forms of the deity are worshipped. Ahobilam is believed to be in the middle of Adishesha and expands all over the Nalmalla Hills.
The temple was built according to the Vijayanagara style of architecture and houses idols of all the nine forms of Lord Narasimha Swami. The sacred Ahobilam Temple was built on the footprint of Lord Lakshmi Narasimha Swamy, measuring 5 feet 3 inches. It is believed that a marriage ceremony performed here leads to a happy and fulfilling marriage.
