Tirupati's sacred Sri Venkateswara Temple on the Tirumala Hills is one of the world's most visited religious sites, attracting millions of devotees yearly.
Situated in the Chittoor district of Andhra Pradesh, Tirupati is famous for the Venkateswara Temple atop the sacred Tirumala Hills, one of the seven peaks of Seshachalam range. The deity is believed to represent Lord Vishnu in the Kali Yuga.
The temple administration is managed by the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD). Devotees participate in traditions including tonsuring (hair offering) and receiving the world-famous Tirupati Laddu prasadam, recognizing it as a highly organized pilgrimage.
