It is located 10 miles from Narasaraopet city and 14 miles from Chilakaluripet city and 25 miles south west of Guntur City. Kotappa Konda hill appears with 3 peaks in any direction so it's also called as Trikutadri, Trikuta Parvatham. The three hills are: Brahma hill, Vishnu hill and Rudra hill. These 3 hills can be distinctly seen from a distance from any direction. PRABHALU (CHARIOTS): People of seven villages in Kotappakonda spent Rs 2.5 crore for 14 electric ‘prabhalu’ (chariots) as part of Maha Shivaratri. Residents of Purushottamapatnam, Appapuram, Kammavaripalem, Kavuru, Maddirala, Yadavalli and Ameensahebpalem, Uppalapadu, Kakani are known to have been taking out a chariot processions for the past 300 years spending their own money. The celebrations attract people in large numbers from Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka and other areas as the ‘tall electric prabhalu’ are a major attraction. The prabhalu (chariots) has decorated arches with Lord Siva’s replicas made of bamboo. Villagers also display flags of political parties. The residents of Purushotammapatnam brought seven prabhalu (chariots) of different families — Vidadalavari, Thota Pullappa Thata, Mandalaneni, Bhaira, Chinnathota and Yadavarajula, including one representing the village. It is local belief that those bringing prabhalu (chariots) to the hilltop Trikoteswara temple would be blessed with knowledge, wealth, health and wisdom. New norms introduced by the police brought an end to dance by cine and drama artistes on the prabhalu (chariots).
