About Tirupati

Timurala Venkateswara Temple, or simply known as Tirupati, is the most famous pilgrimage destination of South India , and the most popular one. It is located in the Chittoor district of Andhra Pradesh , about 750KM southwest of Vishakhapatnam, and is also home to other historic and ancient temples. Hence, the town is also referred to as the Spiritual Capital of Andhra Pradesh. 

The temple, the highlight of the Tirupati map, is perched on and is surrounded by the Tirumala Hills, which are a part of the Sheshachalam Hills Range. They are also called the Tirupati hills. The hills rise to about 2799ft. above sea level, offering great views of the surrounding landscape of forests and waterfalls.

The hills are distinguished by seven peaks, which are mythological representations of the seven heads of Adisesha . The Tirupati temple sits on the 7 th peak – Venkatadri , adjacent to the Swami Pushkarini Lake. Hence it is also called the Temple of the Seven Hills . The entire town, including the temple, covers an area of 26.75 km2 and has a population of 287,035.

The name Tirupati is derived from its Dravidian origin , which translates to “ sacred abode ”. 

History of Tirupati Balaji Temple

It is believed that Venkateswara, an avatar of Vishn u appeared on what is presently the temple site, to save mankind from the sufferings of the Kali Yuga. Most ruling dynasties like the Pallavas, Cholas, and the Vijayanagar Kings were devotees of this temple. The first official administration of the temple was set up by Maratha general, Raghoji I Bhosle.

Then during the colonial rule, the British East India Company oversaw the management and handed it to the Mahants of Hathiramji Muth . It was only in 1933, under the TTD Act, the Tirumala Tirupathi Devasthanams trust was formed to manage and conduct all activities in Tirupathi and other temples in Tirumala. 

Interesting Facts

One of the most visited pilgrimage sites in India, Tirupati Temple is frequented by nearly 100,000 people daily , who come here for the sole purpose of Tirupati darshan. On special occasions and festival, the number goes up to 500,00 0, making it the most-visited holy place in the world. 

It is also considered to be the richest Hindu temple in the world , with respect to the donations it receives and the wealth accumulated thereof. The reason behind such endowments is associated with a legend in the Puranas.

It is said that Ventakeswara loaned about 11.4 million gold coins from Kuber for his marriage to Padmavathi. With that money, he hired Viswakarma, the divine architect to create the majestic abode. In remembrance, devotees donate money, gold, and other material endowments to the temple, so Venkateshwara can pay back Kuber. It is said that the donations to Tirupati temple go as high as 22.5 million INR per day . 

Another interesting aspect of Tirupati is its fundamental belief in equality and prohibits any sacrificial offerings , unlike many other Hindu temples or as in other sects of Hinduism.

Temple Architecture

Tirupati temple Architecture

The temple structure is a work of architectural wonder. The stone carvings on the facades, interiors and the towers, reflect the finesse and skillfulness of ancient Dravidian architecture and is awe-inspiring. It is constructed in classic Dravidian architectural style and is said to have taken a long period of time to build, starting from 300AM. The temple premise consists of two queue complexes to manage pilgrims, the Tarigonda Vengamamba Annaprasadam complex for free meals for visitors, hair tonsure buildings, and a number of pilgrim lodging sites.

My Harrowing Experience of Walking The 12Kms To Tirupati Balaji Temple

tirupati trip experience

28 May 2016

They say when the time is right, it happens to you.

With that saying, well, it just did. Tirupati just happened.

Visiting Tirupati was in my bucket list for the longest time. After a yearlong on and off plans, I finally did.

I will start narrating about my visit in detail, but before that I will stop and harp on a question posed by one of the fellow guys who was of quite a help in this adventure of mine. We were in a long queue that just didn’t seem to want to move. Stuck there, he entertained me with this question. He asked me ‘How’s Tirupati?’

He obviously knew I wasn’t having fun the least bit. Yet, I gave him an immediate nonverbal response – a thumbs up, a superb with the show of my hands. 

Yes, hell yeah there was sarcasm. 

But then again, ask me that question now!

Now that I’m finished, I think I might have a different answer. 

Alors, Je vais commencer.

So, it was a Friday. Saju and I decide to meet at CMBT bus terminal after work. I take the Chennai metro from Alandur to CMBT and the exit leads me to the Bus terminal. A colleague had told me platform No.3 was where buses to Tirupati stopped. So, I walk for what seemed like a mile before making to the platform that was at the tail end.

CMBT bus stand at night

I asked a bus conductor on where to get tickets from, and he points me to a ticket counter. I rush to the counter to find a queue. It was one such queue that I couldn’t find an end to. I walk and I walk little more and manage to reach the end of the line. My mathematics (although very poor baring BODMAS) said that around 70 men and a few counted women that stood in that line before me. I very religiously joined that line and became that 71st person.

Busy CMBT bus stand

Now, let me take a moment off to explain you about my surroundings. Tirupati buses stop right next to the Gents toilet. These 70 men that I spoke of are probably those who ran that mile to reach the counter and so that explains the odour. Off these 70 men, few of their wives were agitated about their husband’s planning, and agitated Tamil women can oh boy! Turn you on! (Right, of course I’m kidding), but the point I’m making here is that they did mentally rape their men then. And finally, Time on the watch said 10:45PM. 

Yes, now is the time you can ask me why I didn’t book the tickets earlier – My first mistake .

Not that I didn’t try. But there were some really nice people who said buses to Tirupati left every five minutes from CMBT. Not a true story! Yes, I indeed need to find those people and whack their backs!! Anyways, coming back, the queue moved in snail’s pace and I only hoped Saju could come soon. She made it around 11:10PM. I didn’t complaint about the present situation because both of us really wanted to go, at no matter what cost. She swapped soon with me. The crowd lessened with time. There were close to 15 people in the queue and the time was 11:45PM when the guy at the counter announced that all the seats were full and the next bus to Tirupati left at 4 in the morning.

Saju and I looked at each other with Oreey the peelings . We did not see this coming. Soon, those 15 people scattered. Few went home. Few waited for some miracle bus to drop down from Tirumala. Saju and I were confused if we should go home and come back for the morning bus or just wait. We just hoped something would come our way. Like Shaktiman may be. Or well, I prefer Iron Man more. 

Well, we waited for an hour or so and soon a bus slid in. The entire leftover crowd ripped other people’s shirts and tickled others’ bones to make their way into that bus and find themselves a seat. Saju and I also joined the crazy crowd. And the conductor announced the bus leaves to Kalahasti.

Honestly, that was the first time I had heard of that place. Kalahasti, now that I know is a three and a half hour travel from Chennai famously known for a temple that attracts fruitless couples who can’t have a baby. And the conductor continues, Tirupati is an hour from Kalahasti and he says trust me, I will take you guys to Tirupati from there. Perplexed, Saju and I decided to take the chance, knowing that most of the crowd in the bus was heading there, we had the conductor at trust. We found seats in different places, but we smiled, coz all’s worth it if the plan is still on.

Tirupati Bus from Chennai

We reached Kalahasti at 3:30am and boarded our next bus to Tirupati. So, yes! It was happening. We couldn’t thank the conductor enough. Our Iron man for the night! After an hour’s travel, we reached Tirupati at 4:30am. 

Honestly, I had not much knowledge about Tirupati apart from the fact that it’s the holy city of Andhra, and that Tamil Nadu gave up on Tirupati in exchange for Chennai and the most prominent fact that people have blind faith in god. It might seem funny but honestly until yesterday I didn’t know which god that was worshipped there. For all you people like me, it’s the Lord Venkateswara Balaji , an incarnation of Vishnu.

So, the time was 4:45 in the morning as we embarked upon on our journey of climbing Tirupati steps taking god’s name. Go-vinda Gopala we played the chorus for other devotees who chanted! Tirupati to Tirumala distance by walk is 12kms. 12kms walk up mount is no cake walk. 2083 steps to worship the Lord Hanuman or popularly known as Anjaneya and another 1467 steps to the pinnacle of Tirumala. 

It was a beautiful sight as we moved up hill with devotees performing different forms of offerings. Some left a hint of vermilion and sandalwood paste on every step up. While some others left a piece of camphor and their other half walked up lighting every piece one by one. I had always wondered why Hindus lit camphor as an offering. It is believed that when the camphor is lit, it burns itself out, fully evaporating until there is no residue left leaving behind a sweet fragrance in the air. In the same manner, it symbolizes union with God and the promise of the devotee to burn their ego completely without leaving any residue. That’s amazing right? Well, of course I read that up!

In the open space that we had on both the left and the right hand sides, we saw blocks of small brick size stones arranged one above the other. This ritual is believed to be performed by people who wish to build a house of their own. I quickly built my own little dwelling. 

We rested at frequent intervals and kept us energized with biscuits and glucose that we carried. First hint of happiness in our expedition was when we saw the number 650 inscribed on one of the steps.  That was really motivating. The ascending got tougher with time, but we managed to mount 2083 in two hours. Yes, pls do not judge our fitness and stamina. Saju and I almost dropped dead after making it to the Anjaneya Statue. On reaching, we found a huge 60 feet Hanuman shrine. We quickly made our prayers and did three circumambulations around the idol. There were bells of different sizes hanging on a rope around the idol; we ringed a few hoping our prayers would be heard.

And the next thing we looked forward to was finally visiting the Lord Venkateswara temple. So, we stood in the queue to get our tokens for the Darshan. Moving in the queue was more like going around in a complex maze, but after close to 45 minutes of going through all of that we made it to the token counter.  A highly disinterested person with a sulking face at the counter asks me to look into a camera and then points me to place my index finger on a fingerprint recognition device. I do as asked.  He then prints a copy of both my photograph and fingerprint and pastes it over the token and hands it over to me. Saju and I were both happy that finally after all the pain, now there’s nothing else. No more obstacles.  No more hurdles. Nothing comes in between me and the Lord.

But little did we know that we had another 1467 steps to mount. Another 7 mile walk.  WTF! ‘I’m not doing it’ was my instant reaction when I saw a green board with the number 3550 for Tirumala.  But Saju in her most subtle silent demeanour said ‘ Khush, we have come this far, it’s just a matter of few more steps ’. She wasn’t convinced herself if we should be doing it I could tell, but both of us had it in the back of our heads,  if we walk away now, all the pain would go waste. Furious on the Lord Venkateswara for making this journey all the more difficult, we started off again. This mount was quicker. We took bigger steps and lesser breaks. Also, the view was scenic. Spotted deers, they were really a sight!! 

Two abla naaris attract what? Yes, young men who don’t have to talk, their testosterone speaks for them. So, there were two guys who possibly tried everything to catch our attention. Uncalled for grins, taking breaks around the same time we do, passing by too close. But we had a big task ahead. Ignorance is what we gave them back.

After climbing another 1300 steps, the pathway leads out to an open road. So for another mile or two, it was just walk and no steps. Honestly, that was a relief. But it can’t be that easy. Can it?  The sun wasn’t too kind. The road had just got heated up from the scorching sun. My feet didn’t feel good, but it wasn’t too big a pain after all that we had already been through. 

The time on the watch was 9.30am when we just had the last few steps to climb. Here is where we saw men and women making their way up the stairs on their knees. I was cribbing about having to just walk on feet; I really wondered how these people got the courage and the strength to do it on their knees. You come across certain situations in your life where you get cranky and crib about every other damn thing you have to face and then you see these people, their determination, the pain they go through; and you feel really small about yourself. I felt little. 

We completed the 12 kms walk and 3550 steps escapade and made it to the top at 10am. That was a good 5 hours ascending up.

The next task ahead of us was to find a place to store our bags. Believe me, we asked so many people and each one gave a different answer and desperate that we were to just now already get the Darshan we tried every place each one of them suggested. We had lost half hour doing this, yet the bags were still with us. I had exhausted myself with all the walking that I finally sat in one corner in a flight of stairs and told Saju, ‘ You find the locker, when you come back you will find me here’ . That time I spent sitting there, when I think about it now it brings me nightmares.

On the left and right were the Gents and the Ladies washroom. There were strands of hair lying everywhere. The floor was wet in places. Some really intelligent people had washed their sarees and left it out in the open for drying and the water kept dripping. It was gross. I just wished Saju would deposit the bag soon and we could just get out of that room. 15 minutes passed; yet there was no sign of her. She came back after another 10 minutes and to my disappointment she still had the bag with her. We let the bag episode to rest and started for Darshan. 

So for those of you who have never been to Tirupati, there are 3 broad categories of darshan – Special Darshan where you pay Rs.300 for entry, Sarva Darshan where the entry is free, and Divya Darshan for people like Saju and I who take the Pedestrian walking. 

So, we follow the display boards and make our way to the Divya Darshan entrance. We would think after 12kms walk, things would get easier. But honey, mind you that was just the beginning. We walked two kilometers and finally found the Divya darshan line. So there is a cage like structure that goes on for a few kilometers and to do Darshan, you need to go through the cage.

Now the fun fact is that to enter the cage itself there was a 2kms line. Yes, you got it right. Nothing comes easy. Especially when it is your first time, things only get tougher. What was disturbing was, you start from Point A, and reach Point B and then again pass through Point A, only difference is that when you cross Point A for the second time, you have now entered a cage, and the feeling is of a helpless pigeon wanting to be set free. And you see these people outside who will be doing the same routine like you, and you want to scream out to them, ‘Go back!!! You have no clue what you are getting yourself into.’

I felt helpless. Yes, I could quit all of this and go back home, but just for all the effort and time spent so far to go down the drain. So, although the thoughts kept creeping in, I decided to stay. 

Time was 12:00pm when we finally entered the cage and joined the others. The line moved slowly little by little. There are times when it moved too fast and in such excitement everybody is rushing and then suddenly they shut the gate. All of us clearly unaware end up being in so close contact to each other that there is no room to breathe. It gets suffocating and you start to feel that you will choke to death. And to top that holding yourself in that position for a good 15 minutes! Go-vinda is all I could call out.

devotees in tirupati cage

Time was 2.00pm and we still had not even covered half the distance to the temple. Soon we found some staff with their food carts outside the cage and distributing Upama . Honestly, I felt the kind of happiness a child feels when they are denied a chocolate but after making a huge hue and cry about it, their parents finally give up. And now when the child gets the chocolate, there is no sign of tears and the satisfaction is immense. Saju and I finished it in no time. That was second big hint of happiness in this journey of ours.

Now that we had filled our empty stomachs we had the energy and the patience to go for a few more hours. Whenever possible, we moved swiftly through the crowd. When we managed to make it out of the gate, the people with whom we started off were nowhere to be seen. We had left them far behind. But I kid you not, it was 5.00pm in the evening when we finally got out of that cage. It was a mixed emotion that I was feeling. I wanted to cry at the same time I just couldn’t contain my happiness. The wait was finally over. I quickly calculated the approximate Darshan time and the time I’ll be back to Chennai in my head and the excitement just wouldn’t rest.

Once we get out of the cage, we are locked in a room full of people. I didn’t understand. I thought that we were going for Darshan. Apparently – not yet! Now that locking inside the cage wasn’t enough, they shut you inside a room full of people.

In that same room, in a small corner is where you find a counter that reads ‘Laddoo counter’. Now you would think, this is where you would get laddoos, but – no no! Not so soon. This is where you get the token to get the laddoos. Laddoos can be bought only after you are done with the darshan and apparently not in the Laddoo ‘token’ counter; in a laddoo distribution counter – or whatever you wanna call it. Yes, it gets only further more frustrating.

A guy very sweetly and earnestly asked if he should get it for us too when he does for him and we readily agreed. We rested for a while, while he made his way through the crazy crowd and bought us tokens. We thanked him and he flashed his dimple smile. 

The time was 6:00pm and yet we were still stuck in the room. There was a TV in the center of the room, and they kept showing videos of some women doing Kathak. Saju and I tried our best to get amused by it. We tried imitating the expressions, and had a good laugh watching each other. The room was so packed that we couldn’t move, and we had to sit with our backs straight.. The situation was such that we had two people in deep slumber with their legs stretched out, and their fat bellys clearly visible through their untucked shirts on both of our sides. We didn’t have the space to move. Pathetic would be an understatement. Lord Venkateswara, ‘you have tested our patience enough, now just please let us see you ’, I begged.

Six become Seven, and soon the time was eight. And finally there was some food – Sambar Sadam. The dimple guy helped us get the food the second time as well. The food was hot and yummylicious. That was the best Sambar Sadam I had in my entire life. I craved for more, but thought it wasn’t right troubling the dimple guy again. This was the third best thing to have happened in the day.

Just like us, the other 90,000ish people who came to visit Tirupati that day, were locked inside rooms. The time was 9:00 in the night when they finally opened the door for Darshan. We moved slowly through the crowd; crossed the security checking points again, and made it to the temple at around 10:30pm. The temple was scintillatingly beautiful with the lights. And it had started to drizzle also. It was perfect. All the fatigue had vanished. I wanted to capture the moment. If only we could take the cameras inside. But that didn’t stop me from capturing the picture in my head.

We entered the temple and there were security personnel at every nook and corner at the temple.  They literally push you forward to move faster. That treatment was just similar to the way we would shoo away a stray dog coming chasing after us; no offence I understand they have a huge crowd to manage, but yet we deserve better. And yes finally you’d ask if I saw the Lord after this haymen! I’d say Yess, I got a good view of Lord for a good 15 seconds. It was gratifying. I quickly made my prayers. We were out by 11:00pm. 

The dimple guy helped us with getting the laddoos, our slippers and the luggage. Phew! No more long queues for a long time now!! I Swear ! 

Now, all we had to do was find our way home. We had already missed the last bus from Tirumala to Chennai. So now, we had to first find our way down to the Tirupati bus stop, secondly hope we would find a bus and very importantly some good seats; not to mention the much needed sleep lost out from the previous night. So, the dimple guy joined us in the jeep that took us down. It took us an hour and fifteen minutes to get to the bus stop. That is when the realization stuck that we had walked a lot. ALOT!

After making it to the bus stop, we bid the dimple guy adieu and went looking for buses to Chennai. A bus came in 15 minutes. Saju and I literally ran towards the bus and the conductor just shooed us away. Apparently all the seats had already been reserved. We waited for the next bus, but my eyes were drooping. I just wanted a comfy bed and some beauty sleep.

We waited for another half an hour and there was no sign of any bus. Others at the bus stop kept saying the next bus would come only at 3 in the morning. Saju and I hoped against hope. Time was 1am when a bus came in. All the seats were reserved in this one as well. But right next to the driver, there was a small table cum seat and Saju just deposited her ass there. Ask me and I’d say that was the smartest thing she had done in her entire life. She pleaded the driver to let us use the seat as he drove the bus to Chennai. He agreed for a lesser price and we just dropped our stuff and let out a huge sigh! I didn’t get sleep throughout the journey. But we made it to Chennai at 4 in the morning and I remember what I did right after getting back home – Make my bed and hit the sack!

A day later I researched to realise that the then Andhra Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu had visited Tirupati on the same day. That explains the chaos and the looooong wait! Not good Mr. Babu !

So, this was our little adventure. If you ask me to describe my Tirupati experience in 5 little words, they have to be – A test of my patience !

Tirupati is located in India’s Chittoor district of Andhra Pradesh. It is seen as a holy city for those practicing Hinduism, which causes the state to experience a high amount of pilgrimage traffic. Planning a trip to this sacred and holy state can seem overwhelming, but by planning your itinerary, selecting your transportation and lodging, and properly preparing to travel, you can make your trip to Tirupati a stress-free adventure that you will always remember.

Planning Your Itinerary

Step 1 Decide the best time of year to take your trip.

  • Tirupati experiences very hot and humid temperatures throughout their summers, the worst months being April and May. Visitors tend to avoid the extreme heat and humidity, which also means that the city is less crowded during this time.

Step 2 Plan on visiting temples and architectural sites in Tirupati.

  • Always research the temples you want to visit ahead of time, as many of them are still being used for religious practices and may have strict rules.
  • Some of the temples in Tirupati can see up to 60,000 pilgrims a day, so make sure you allow yourself adequate time to book visits in advance.

Step 3 Explore festivals and other events to experience India’s rich culture.

  • Keep in mind that while these events are going on, there will be more natives and tourists flooding the city. If you aren’t a fan of crowds, then you may want to plan your trip around these events.
  • If you are planning your trip to attend a specific event make sure to secure your lodging ahead of time to avoid any interruptions in your travel.

Step 4 Enjoy the local cuisine to experience all of India’s specialties.

  • Some Indian cuisines you should try while in Tirupati are, Idli and Dosa, Uttapam and Vada, and Chettinad cuisine.
  • Tirupati offers a variety of foods including vegetarian cuisines. Research the most recommended restaurants near where you will be staying to ensure you have the opportunity to taste all Tirupati has to offer.

Selecting Transportation and Lodging

Step 1 Plan your flight to Tirupati if you’re traveling from far away.

  • Prior to booking your flight, look for any fees regarding checking luggage. Many international airlines will charge additional fees for baggage.

Step 2 Travel to Tirupati by train if you’re coming from another part of Asia.

  • If you are coming from another country you will need to find a railway that connects your area to a major city in India to get to Tirupati.

Step 3 Book a guesthouse or hotel at least 1-2 months in advance.

  • Whether you are staying in a hotel or a guesthouse make sure that you look at reviews before booking. The pictures may look great online, but they might not be an accurate representation of where you will be staying.

Step 4 Determine the way you will get to your destinations in Tirupati.

  • If you are planning to rent a car in Tirupati, your current Driver’s License may not be valid to drive in India. Always check the rules and regulations regarding international drivers prior to your trip.
  • To find out more information on India’s international driving regulations visit https://www.internations.org/india-expats/guide/driving-in-india-15620/foreign-drivers-in-india-legal-aspects-2

Preparing to Travel

Step 1 Understand the monetary conversion for India before traveling.

  • Avoid going to conversion centers at airports or in major cities. They tend to have higher fees than going to an ATM or a bank.
  • Always keep local cash on hand. Many transportation services such as trains and buses will not accept credit cards.
  • Check https://www.oanda.com/currency/converter/ for exchange rates before you go.

Step 2 Make sure your passport is valid for 6 months after your arrival date in India.

  • If you are applying for your first passport or renewing your passport allow at least 6 weeks for your application to be processed. You can pay for expedited processing to receive your passport in 2 to 3 weeks. [11] X Research source
  • India also requires that your passport has at least two blank pages.
  • Always bring copies of your passport with you. If your passport is lost or gets stolen, having copies can help you replace your passport and be granted an exit visa.

Step 3 Obtain a valid Indian Visa before entering the country.

  • If you are visiting India with the intent to stay longer than 180 days, you must register your visit 2 weeks prior to your entry into the country. You need to register through the Foreigners Regional Registration Office at the closest location to where you will be staying. Also, make sure that you have obtained the appropriate visa before entering India. [13] X Research source
  • The electronic travel authorization must be applied for at least 4 days prior to when you plan to enter the country. To apply for a Visa visit https://indianfrro.gov.in/frro/menufrro.jsp?t4g=C9NLQKZ3 .
  • If you are a US citizen with Pakistani origin or decent, you may be subject to undergo administrative processing. This may also delay the time it takes when applying for an Indian visa. [14] X Research source

Step 4 Have all of your medical information and insurance on hand.

  • If you are traveling from an area that has yellow fever, you are required to carry and present documentation that you have been vaccinated against yellow fever. If you do not present proof of your vaccination, you may be immediately deported or placed in a yellow fever quarantine detention center for 6 days. [16] X Research source
  • If you are traveling with prescription medication, check to make sure the medication is legal in India prior to your arrival. Also, keep any medications in their original containers along with the prescription from your doctor. [17] X Research source
  • Be aware that programs such as U.S. Medicare will not cover any medical expenses while you are overseas.

Step 5 Register with your country’s embassy to stay safe during an emergency.

  • You can also check your government’s website to see if they have issued any travel warnings or temporary advisories that may affect your safety while abroad.
  • India is experiencing higher crime rates where foreigners may be targets. By being registered with your embassy they will be able to help you in the event you are the victim of a crime.

Step 6 Get guidebooks and maps before you travel if you are unfamiliar with the area.

  • Guidebooks will also usually have enough information for the places you visit so you won’t have to purchase pamphlets at each site you go to.

Tirupati Travel Guide 2022 | Tirumala Travel Blog by Shravya

Tirumala Temple Drawing

Tirupati Travel Guide – A travel guide to the abode of Lord Venkateswara. One of the richest and holiest Dham in the world. One of my favorite pilgrim destinations in India, this hill town is known for its devotional and cultural heritage. As we all know, yearly, millions of devotees visit this holy Dham from across the world.

A common confusion among pilgrims is Tirupathi and Tirumala are the same. Tirupathi is a town in Andhra Pradesh’s Chittoor district. Whereas Tirumala is the seven hills situated in Tirupathi. Tiru means Shree and Mala mean hill, it’s a Tamil word.

Journey to Abode of Lord Venkateswara

A few years back before the pandemic, I went on a pilgrimage trip to Tirumala along with my family. After crossing Tirupathi town which is crowded most of the time, we came to the entrance of Seven hills.

The majestic white color statue of Garuda (Vehicle of Lord Vishnu)welcomes the pilgrims with folded hands. Here, at the Alipiri check post, all the vehicles have to go through checking, like any other place in India.

Tirupati to Tirumala Trip

Here you need to buy a ghat road travel ticket which is quite affordable. The main intention of issuing tickets is to monitor the time a vehicle takes to reach Tirumala. However, each vehicle has to take at least 45 minutes to 1 hour to reach the exit point to avoid accidents on Ghats.

At the entry point, they register the vehicle name along with the time they are entering. The same will be checked at the exit point before allowing the vehicle into Tirumala.

Travel time from Banglore to Tirumala approximately around 5 hours by car. There are no direct bus services to Tirumala. You need to take the bus to Tirupathi, catch another bus from Tirupathi, or hire taxi jeeps to Tirumala.

There are numerous taxi services available to Tirumala from Tirupathi town. From Chennai, it takes around 3 hours by car, whereas by bus around 3hours 30 minutes. If you are coming by road to Tirupati from Chennai, please check out these temples to visit from Chennai to Tirupati .

Stay and Darshan ticket at Tirumala

Getting a rest/guest house and Darshan ticket on time used to be very difficult a few years back. However, TTD, the governing board made it easy for pilgrims by making ticket booking online. I personally advise those who are planning to visit the abode of Lord Venkateswara to make sure you book tickets prior.

Another advantage is that they can select the Seva which they want to perform for the god. If there are no slots available, then you can visit the nearby TTD temple board in your area and book through them. You can even make online donations as well.

The guest house we stayed at during our visit was very comfortable and had a beautiful view from the balcony. The roads were so clean you can even walk without footwear.

If you are looking for some luxury stay, you can opt for Balaji Guest home, Aditya Birla Nilayam, Lakshmi VPR guest home, Tirumala Sainik Niwas. These guest houses’ price range starts from 2500 – 3000 rupees.

TTD made things easy for devotees. Open the TTD office site, select pilgrim services in that select rest houses. You will find the price range for different rest houses. Then, go for advance booking and book your selected rooms.

Climbing seven hills on foot and free Darshana

Many people pray to God that, if their wish comes true they climb seven hills on foot and have his Darshan. For this, there is a separate route where you need to climb approximately 3500 steps. Initially, the climb will be quite painful, but as you progress in your journey you find small roads for around 1km followed by broader steps to climb.

The best thing is that the steps are covered with sheets, so the pilgrims won’t feel the heat, unlike other temples in India. Besides this, here you find numerous snack shops where you can stop and have water and a light snack and resume your journey.

Free darshan ticket will be given to all the devotees who come to Tirumala through climbing steps. After finishing the tedious step climbing, pilgrims go to their reserved guest house and freshen up before they go for free darshan.

Another difficult task is here you need to stand in the queue for long hours. But the TTD members constantly supply water and food to devotees in the queue line for free. After the long tiring journey and you finally make it to the Lord’s abode (Temple sanctum), makes it feels worth going through the struggle.

The positive vibes and devotee shouting “Govinda Govinda” along with reverberating mantra chanting “Om Namo Venkateshaya”, bring goosebumps to devotees and for some tears with overwhelming devotion.

Dos and Don’ts at Tirumala

  • Don’t carry any Non-veg or any kind of masala with you while traveling to the abode of Lord Venkateswara.
  • Alcohol consumption or any other malpractices on hills are strictly prohibited.
  • Flammable items, weapons, and fireworks are not allowed inside Tirumala
  • Any kind of tobacco product is not allowed here.
  • While going to Darshan devotees should wear only traditional dresses, applicable to both men and women.
  • PDA on the hills is strictly prohibited.

Legend of Lord Venkateswara

The story is known to all but holds the power and love of Lord Vishnu. Once Maharishis were doing one Mahayajnam at the Naimishrayana. When the rishis were in dilemma as to whom they should give the Yajna Phalam among the trinity?

Narada Maharishi who happens to visit the place suggests Bhrigu Maharishi to find out which diety is the right recipient of the Yajna Phalam.

All the other maharishis who were present at the site accept this. Firstly, Bhrigu Maharishi visits Brahma Loka where the Lord of creation was immersed in the music played by Saraswathi Devi and was not aware of Bhrigu’s arrival.

This angered the Maharishi and he happens to Curse Lord Brahma that nobody on earth will pray for him. Then he visits Kalish where Lord Shiva and Parvathi Devi were enjoying their conjugal dance.

They didn’t notice the arrival of the Maharishi. As a result, this angered maharishi and he cursed Lord Shiva that people will worship him in Shiva Linga rupa on earth.

Later he goes to Vaikuntam, the abode of Lord Vishnu where Lord Vishnu spends his time with Lakshmi Devi lying on Adi shesha. Even Lord Vishnu didn’t notice Bhrigu Maharishi’s arrival. The enraged Maharishi in a fit of rage kicks on Lord Vishnu’s chest, a residence of Maa Lakshmi.

Lord Vishnu who understands the ignorance of Maharishis pacified him by asking him for forgiveness. As Lord touched Maharishi’s foot, the ignorance of the rishi was gone. Maharishi felt ashamed for his heinous act and asks for forgiveness.

The incarnation of Lord Venkateswara

But Lakshmi Devi who witnessed all these, boils with rage and leaves Vaikuntam and reaches Earth. Lord Vishnu who couldn’t stay away from Devi comes to earth in search of Lakshmi Devi.

He incarnates as Venkateswara swami and marries Padmavathi Devi. Lord stayed on Tirumala hills along with Padmavathi Devi and Lakshmi Devi to bless and protect his devotees.

Silathornam

Can you believe this rock arch formation has been existent for around 2500 million years? There are only three places you can find this type of arch formation. Some believe the height of the arch is the same as the height of the main idol in the temple.

I had fun here by clicking few photos with family. Luckily there were only a few pilgrims when we visited. Had a good time strolling in the rock garden. Also, went down the steps, to the cave temple.

Though there is not much to see, one can enjoy the forest and nature, it is better not to visit in the afternoon. The evening and morning are the best times to relax in the Rock Graden.

Srivari Padalu

Another must-visit place in Tirumala, Srivari Padalu is the place where Lord Venkateswara first kept his foot. The hilltop provides a panoramic view of the entire seven hills.

I never got a chance to enjoy the panoramic view of the hill at peace as it is always packed with pilgrims. Previously, the Padalu(Foot)of god used to be open now it is kept in a glass box so that no one will touch it.

Besides this, there are many other places to visit in the abode of Lord Venkateswara. If time permits visit Aksha Ganga. Tirumala is famous for its beauty and you find numerous parks to relax, and spend quality time in peace.

If you are a wildlife lover, visit Sri Venkateswara Wild sanctuary. Like to know about kings of this place and temple history then have a look at the museum. Also, don’t forget to visit Tiruchanur Temple of Alamelumanga, another name of Padmavathi Devi.

My experience at Tirumala

I never forget the evening walk in the semi-crowded street where you will be blessed with a pleasant cool breeze. The chanting of “Om Namo Venkateshaya” mantra reverberates the entire Tirumala.

This place makes me realize I’m a sensitive and very devotional person. Whenever I enter the main temple sanctum I always cry with overwhelmed devotion. The main idol captives the onlookers with its divine presence.

In between devotees shouting ‘Govinda’ with ecstasy and the powerful “Om Namo Venkatesya,” mantra sound always makes me experience a devotion that I never experienced.

Tirupati Balaji Temple: A Complete Travel Guide

Tirupati Balaji Temple: A Complete Travel Guide

India is a land of culture, where an amalgam of various traditions from different religions can be seen. The country houses various temples, mosques, churches, and gurudwaras, where people pay their respects and pray to the Almighty, irrespective of caste or creed. The unity in people, the fervour with which all the festivals are celebrated – that’s the beauty that India reflects on other countries.

People in the country undertake a lot of pilgrim yatras, which has made some of the religious places well-known amongst tourists. One such famous religious sites in India is the Tirupati Balaji Temple.

Also known as the Lord Venkateshwara Temple, it is one of the richest temples in the country, located in Chittoor, Andhra Pradesh. Perched in the Tirumala Hills, it is said that the temple is constructed where Lord Venkateshwara (a form of Lord Vishnu) took the form of an idol. Tirupati is one of the oldest cities in the country, having various mentions in Vedas and Puranas; Tirupati Balaji’s darshan will bring you closer to such ancient scripts. The Tirumala Hills is a Saptagiri (one of the seven hills), surrounded by the Eastern Ghats. It is believed that the seven peaks are the seven hoods of the Adishesha or the Sheshnag (Serpent God) that cushions Lord Vishnu.

Going Down the Historic Lanes of Tirupati Balaji Temple

Every ancient religious site or forts in India has a history associated with it. Legends that can intrigue you, interest you into visiting the place. And rightfully so, even the Tirupati Balaji Temple has a history that you should know of.

Tirupati’s history has always been associated with the Venkateshwara Temple and its origin predates to the ancient times of kings and rajas. The rulers of various dynasties of the South, over different decades, and their devotion towards Lord Vishnu has helped in preserving the authenticity and beauty of the temple, which visitors can see today by booking their  Tirupati package  for a devotional time.

The Pandayas, Pallavas, Cholas, and Kings of the Vijaynagar Empire were the main contributors who enhanced the wealth and value of the temple. Krishnadevaraya is said to have contributed to the most. What’s more interesting is that he got gold statues of himself and his wives installed in the temple premises. Apart from the main contributors, other Hindu rulers like Ragoji Bhosle also contributed to the wealth of the temple. The treasure of the temple keeps growing every single year as pilgrims and devotees donate part of their earnings and riches to the temple, in the devotion of Lord Venkateshwara.

Deities Residing in the Temple

Along with the 8-feet tall idol of Lord Venkateshwara, other deities that reside in the temple are Dhruva Beram, Sanapana Beram, Kautuka Beram, Utsava Beram, and Bali Beram. Each of the deity is worshipped according to the majestic rituals that were laid down centuries ago. When the rituals are performed, the vibe in the temple becomes so divine that you are bound to slip into a different world. So, if you are booking Tirupati Balaji darshan, you can also pay your respect to the other deities residing there.

The temple is echoed by the non-stop chanting of ‘Om Namo Venkatesaya’, which lifts the spirituality in the aura, making pilgrims submerge themselves in the lap of Lord Vishnu’s devoutness. This is something that attracts tourists and pilgrims from all over the world, making it India’s most-visited temple.

Attractions that Will Make Your Divine Spirit Even More Content

There are a lot of  places to visit near Tirupati ; listed below are some of the temples that you must make a stop at: –

The Tirumala Venkateshwara Temple

This temple has a magnificent architecture that leaves you completely awestruck with its beauty. It has a gold plated Vimanam – the tower that houses the main idol of Lord Vishnu, Bangaru Vakili, Padi Kavali, Vendi Vakili, and Garbh Gruha. The presiding deity, Lord Venkateshwara, is believed to be based here till the Kaliyuga ends. The temple celebrates festivities with grandeur and several Vaishnava festivals are celebrated, making the temple an even more famous attraction for pilgrims and tourists all around the world, let alone India. You can opt for online booking of Tirupati Balaji through their Devasthanam site, in case you don’t opt for a package.

Silathoranam

The Silathoranam is a natural rock formation that resembles a conch, discus, and serpent hood, which is similar to the one of Adishesha. Adishesha is known to be the supporting nether of Lord Vishnu, making the Silathoranam an attraction of utmost importance in Tirumala.

Kapilateertham

Tirupati is known to house mostly Vaishnavites temples; however, Kapilateertham is one of the Shaivites temple, dedicated to Lord Shiva and also happens to be one of the  famous South Indian temples  in the country. It is located in the foothills of the Tirumala Hills and houses a water tank, where all the pilgrims take a dip before moving ahead to the Lord Venkateshwara temple.

Govindaraja Swamy Temple

Located near the railway station in Tirupati, the Govindaraja Swamy Temple has a beautiful and prominent Gaali Gopuram that is visible quite from a distance. Along with the idol of Swamy Govindaraja, the temple complex has idols of other deities, who are worshipped by the devotees. During May-June, the temple celebrates Brahmotsavam and devotees and pilgrims from all over India visit the Govindaraja Swamy temple to participate in the celebrations.

Sri Kodandarama Swamy Temple

Sri Kodandarama Swamy Temple is dedicated to Lord Rama and his wife, Sita Maata. Lord Rama is highly revered as the incarnation of Lord Vishnu and Sri Kodandarama Swamy Temple was built in honour of the divine couple’s return from Sri Lanka. It is believed that Lord Rama and Sita Maata stayed inside the temple premises for a few days, making the place even more sacred for their devotees.

Sri Kalyana Venkateshwaraswami Temple

Believed to be the place where the mythological wedding of Lord Venkateshwara and Devi Padamavathi took place, this temple is of high significance to the pilgrims. The temple is located in Narayanavanam and every pilgrim visiting Tirupati Balaji makes a stop here.

It is reported that the temple welcomes around 50,000 pilgrims every day, which is the highest number of devotees visiting a temple in India. The entry for Balaji darshan at Tirupati is through the Vaikuntam Queue Complex. This complex is a series of interconnected halls that lead the pathway to the main temple. The halls of the complex are extremely clean and hygienic, with various facilities that make the pilgrims feel comfortable during their Tirupati Balaji darshan.

City Shopping in Tirupati

It may not be the ideal shopping destination but Tirupati does have places where you can shop for some unique, one-of-its-kind beautiful things. Starting with something that devotees will like – you can find various shops and stalls right outside the Tirupati Balaji temple where you can find beautifully crafted figurines of the deity, CDs filled with religious shlokas and songs, holy prasadams and laddoos that you can relish on.

Apart from this, the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanam (the temple trust that enables online booking for Tirupati Balaji darshan) also publishes various religious books and periodicals that pilgrims can get their hands on. Audio and video cassettes/CDs of Vedas, Sankirtans, and Pravachanams are also released by the Devasthanam. If you plan on taking some souvenir back to your hometown, photo frames, jewellery, and idols made of brass and copper are also available with them.

Coming to the city shopping, Tirupati is famous for housing some of the most skilled craftsmen, who create marvellous paintings and handicrafts for your purchase. You can find various wood-carved toys, pottery items, Kalamkari fabric, and other such artworks that allures you to buy them for yourself and your loved ones.

The Tanjore Style Painting

One of the most famous and proud assets of Tirupati are the traditional Tanjore style gold leaf painting. Also known as the Thanjavur style of painting, it is practised at Mandanapalli, a town near Tirupati and is an authentic form of South Indian art that traces back to 1600 AD. The Tanjore style paintings are vibrant in colour with glittering gold foil, glass beads, and precious gems carved on them. The paintings are done on wooden planks, which are known as Palagai Padam and art-lovers, non-art-lovers, and everyone who sees the gorgeousness of the paintings fall in love with them.

If at all you feel like doing some luxury shopping during your Tirupati Balaji tour– Chandan Ramesh and TMC shopping malls are your places to go. For city shopping, you can visit places like Bazaar Street, Lepakshi Emporium, APCO Handloom House, Beri Street, A.K. Palli Road, and Prakasham Road.

Reaching Tirupati Balaji Temple

The location of Tirupati Balaji temple is accessible by local taxi, autorickshaw, and buses. However, to reach Tirupati, you can opt for travel by air, train, or by road. If you travelling from states like Delhi, Assam, and so on by air – the nearest domestic airport to Tirupati is Reniguta and the nearest international airport is Chennai. From the airport, you can hire a local taxi or cab to reach the actual location of Tirupati Balaji Temple.

Life Stories by Veena Patil

‘Exchange a coin and you make no difference but exchange a thought and you can change the world.’ Hi! I’m Veena Patil... Fortunate enough to have answered my calling some 35 years ago and content enough to be in this business of delivering happiness almost all my life. Tourism indeed moulds you into a minimalist... Memories are probably our only possession. And memories are all about sharing experiences, ideas and thoughts. Life is simple, but it becomes easy when we share. Places and people are two things that interest me the most. While places have taken care of themselves, here’s my podcast, which I consider to be a great platform, through which I can share some interesting stories I live and love on a daily basis with all you wonderful people out there. I hope you enjoy the journey... Let’s go, celebrate life!

Tirupati trip package.

Thousands of travellers book  Tirupati  travel packages to experience the perfect confluence of nature and spirituality. The temple town is popular for its iconic temples and religious fervour.

There are numerous affordable Tirupati package options for those living in almost all parts of the country.

A Tirupati travel package for 2-3 days will give you sufficient time to seek darshan at the temple and visit some of the landmarks that the town is famous for. Planning a Tirupati trip is convenient, since the place is well connected to leading Indian cities via air, railways and road. Book your Tirupati travel package and get a glimpse of the iconic Tirupati Balaji Temple that has a rich history associated with it. 

History of Tirupati Balaji Temple

Legends state that this temple is the residence of Lord Vishnu on earth. The Lord held a magnificent wedding ceremony as he completed his nuptials with Goddess Lakshmi who had taken birth as Padmavati on earth. Kuber, the God of Wealth, lent a sizeable sum of money for this purpose. The Lord stayed back in the Tirumala hills after his marriage and a grand temple was built at the spot. The mystical legends also state how the Lord is still repaying Kuber for his loan and this is why devotees strive to make their contributions at the temple. Along with committing to monetary/gold donations, you will also be surprised to know that many people book Tirupati travels package s to donate their hair. It is an ancient practice at the temple. 

The Tirupati Balaji Temple is undoubtedly the chief highlight of any Tirupati trip plan and dates back to 300 AD. Those booking a Tirupati trip package will get access to good facilities including accommodation halls, free meals and more. The natural wonders surrounding the town are also reasons for the soaring popularity of Tirupati sightseeing packages over the years. 

Now that you know what to expect, it is a good idea to book a Tirupati Balaji Darshan package  without further ado. 

Best Time to Travel Tirupati 

You can book a Tirupati travel package almost any time of the year. The best time for Tirupati is usually during the September to February stretch if you want to avoid the scorching heat. The climate remains relatively cooler in this period with occasional showers. Many people choose these months for booking their Tirupati Balaji Darshan package s. 

Many also prefer the summer season for booking Tirupati sightseeing packages , especially over the weekends. This is because it is the holiday season with schools and colleges closing across the country. Hence, if it is convenient for you, you can consider a Tirupati trip package during this time. The weather is hot and humid although it is mostly no deterrent to those booking Tirupati package s. April and May however witness relatively lower volumes of Tirupati trip plan bookings due to the scorching heat. 

The winter season is ideal for darshan and sightseeing alike, which makes it the best time to visit Tirupati for most people, as mentioned. You can also choose the monsoon (July to September) for booking your Tirupati travel package , since the weather remains pleasant with frequent showers. The surrounding greenery and natural marvels also make Tirupati come alive in this period. This is a compelling reason for those considering booking their Tirupati Balaji tour package s during this time. 

How to Reach Tirupati 

People booking a Tirupati Darshan package often wonder about the best ways to reach the holy town.  Since many people combine their Tirupati package or Tirumala Darshan package with other  Andhra Pradesh tour packages . Hence, they should be aware of the distances from leading cities and towns to this spiritual hotspot.  

Those booking a Tirupati tour package from Chennai can reach their destination in only 3.5 hours (137.2 kilometres) by road while those booking a Tirupati tour package from Bangalore can reach in 4.5 hours (248 kilometres).
