In this video, we see and listen to the history of Srivenkateswara swami history in Vadapalli, East Godavari.
Vadapalli is a small village situated on the banks of the Godavari River in the East Godavari District of the state of Andhra Pradesh. This village is famous for Sri Lord Venkateswara Swamy Temple, which is also known as Vadapalli Venkanna Swamy Temple.
The temple has a long history and was developed later in a wide spacious land. The roof around the temple is filled with ‘Govindanamaalu’ which will be helpful for the devotees to recite them while they perform pradakshina. On every Saturday, Fair stalls are arranged to begin from half a kilometer away from the temple.
It is believed that Lord Venkateswara will be pleased and fulfill their wishes if the devotees perform 11 pradakshinas (circumambulation) continuously on 7 Saturdays. Hence a large number of devotees are seen here every Saturday.
The deity of Lord Venkateswara Swamy is made of Erachandanam wood. Here, Sri Venkateswara Swamy is also called as Kalyana Venkateswara. Brahmotsavam is celebrated on a grand scale for 10 days. A number of devotees from different parts of the state visit here every day and there will be more people during Brahmotsavam.
Vaadapalli, also popular as Konaseema Tirupati, is located 10 km away from Ravulapalem town in the East Godavari district. From Ravulpalem, RTC buses, and autos are available to reach the temple.
Kalyana katta / Tonsure service is performed between 1:00 AM to 11:00 PM neat the banks of Godavari River. Online booking is not available.
