About the trip

Tirupati is the town at the foot of the Tirumala hills, home to the Sri Venkateswara temple, one of the most visited shrines in the world. Pilgrims come for darshan, hair offerings and the laddu prasadam, and many visit Padmavathi temple at Tiruchanur as well. From Bangalore the road runs through Kolar, Mulbagal and Chittoor, then up the ghat road to Tirumala.
