Tirupati Tirumala Temples History
Prasanna Venkateshwaraswami
          Sri Prasanna Venkateshwaraswami temple is located in Appalayagunta, 14 km from Tirupati. It is the place where Lord Venkateswera took his rest on his voyage to Tirumala.

          This legendary place is believed to be the spot where the lord blessed Sri Siddeswara and other sages after marrying Sri Padmavathi Ammavaru. The main deity in the temple is famed for its joyous mood and it is assumed that the idol is a self-manifested vigraha. Apart from the main shrine of Venkateswara, the temple premises houses a shrine for Anjaneyaswami, Goddess Padmavathi and Sri Andal also. This fabulous shrine is constructed under the patronage of Rajas of Karvetinagar. It is believed that the devotees, for respite from unceasing ailments, adore the impressive deity of wind-god. Abhishekam on fridays witness large participation of pilgrims since it holds the belief that it would fulfill all their dreams. Brahmotsavam is celebrated once a year.
