Heavenly abode
Have visited this temple several times. We feel blessed to be there. Rapid changes are taking place in and around the temple. Saturdays and Sundays are always crowded. Best time to visit is on weekdays and that too in the afternoons. You can then stand infront of the Lord for plenty of time. Cell phones are not allowed into the temple. However I found a few people taking snaps or talking on phones inside the temple. Security isn't serious about their jobs. I found the security speaking on their mobile phones or playing vidoes. The queue complex is good to control crowds but when there are no crowds, devotees should be allowed to go on a shorter path. However due to the apathy by the security, you are forced to walk all along the queue lines even though there are no people in the lines at all. This is hard for elderly people. Gates are provided to shorten the path but are kept locked and so you are forced to keep walking. Prasad including Pulihora, Laddoo, chakra pongali, Vada etc are now available most of the time. Again the queues are not maintained and no one to regulate. The counter employees should insist that piligrims come in line.

Lord Venkateswara temple
This temple is just 15 kms away from Bimadolu on NH5.This is a very well maintained temple and we can see two idols of Lord Venkatesswara in this temple.This temple had tall raja gopurams and mantapas inside the temple.Recently they constructed a bip matapa infront of the temple where we can see the idols of Dasavataras,Astalaxmis etc.This temple is normally crowded on week ends and public holidays and it will take an hour to complete darshana.Cameras and cell phones are not allowed inside and we need to deposit them at the devastanam counters for 5 rs each

Pious Abode of Lord Venkateswara
We visited Dwaraka Tirumala temple of Lord Venkateswara, which is also known as Chinna Tirupati. Very pious temple. Had a good darshan.

Divine Experience (during COVID-19)
The temple made sure that social distancing was maintained (enforced) and hand sanitizers were made available by the temple authorities (strongly recommend carrying your own hand sanitizer). Literally we were the only the pilgrims in the Rs.100/- queue line, so no social contact whatsoever. We were allowed a good 5 minutes of darshan. The best route to travel to this temple from Hyderabad is along NH 65 until Bhimadole (Suryapet-Vijayawada-Eluru) and the road from Bhimadol (20 odd kms) is alright. NOTE: there are 2 idols in the inner sanctorium, the smaller is one is the self-incarnation (Swayambhu).

China Tirupathi
Popular as 'Chinna Tirupati' (Small Tirupati), the temple is dedicated to Lord Venkateswara, an incarnation of Vishnu. Piligrims who are unable to visit Tirupati Balaji, visit and submit their offerings here. This famous pilgrimage centre is called “Dwaraka Tirumala†after the great saint, 'Dwaraka' who located the self manifested idol of Lord “Sri Venkateswaraâ€. Piligrims can only see the idol upto the bust,lower portion is imagined to be in the earth. The devotees worship 'Sri Venkateswara' as 'Kaliyuga vaikuntavasa'. Take seegradarshan,you can have darshan faster.
