Event
Tirupati-Tirumala Temple Complex
Perhaps the greatest temple of all in our lands, the great temple of Venkateshwara and the connected temple of Tirupati has increasingly come to be connected with the rulers of our state. Over the years, it has grown from a major pilgrimage to one of the great temples in India. The temple is supported by the donations of countless treasures as well as over forty villages providing it with food and income. We should, however, not be content with this. By increasing our support, providing it with even more villages and donations, we could ensure that it becomes the greatest temple in all of Southern India.

1787historical_info = flavor_vij.30.historical_info Although the Venkateswara Temple in Tirumala has existed since ancient times, it was during its control by the Vijayanagara Empire that it could thrive intensely. Emperor Krishnadevaraya made frequent donations to it, which allowed the inner shrine to be gilded, and he even commissioned a statue of himself inside it.
