IRCTC – Tirupati Lord Venkateswara Darshan Tour Package
IRCTC – Tirupati Package
Description:
The temple town of Tirupati in Chittoor district of Andhra Pradesh owes its existence to the sacred temple of Lord Sree Venkateswara situated on the Tirumala hill, nestling among the seven hills in the Eastern Ghats, 26 km by Ghat road from Tirupati. With a history that dates back to over twelve centuries, the temple is the jewel in the crown of ancient places of worship in Southern India.
The Darshan of Lord Sree Balaji, the more the number of visits to Him the more one wants to see Him. The momentary satisfaction derived from the fleeting glimpse of the Lord intensifies the longing to see Him again and again.
It is believed that among the devotees the Lord brings relief to the afflicted, divine wisdom to the seeker, prosperity to the materialist and peace to the Jnaani. All these benefits flow spontaneously and automatically out of the boundless grace of the Lord.
*All Pilgrims/Tourists should carry/produce their personal (in original) ID cards with them prior to Darshan at Tirumala; if fail to produce, TTD Administration will not permit for darshan.
