About Sri Balaji (Lord Vishnu)

The ancient and sacred temple of Sri Venkateswara is located on the seventh peak, Venkatachala  (Venkata Hill) of the Tirupati Hill, and lies on the southern banks of Sri Swami Pushkarini. 

It is by the Lord's presidency over Venkatachala, that He has received the appellation, Venkateswara (Lord of the Venkata Hill). He is also called the Lord of the Seven Hills. 

The benefits acquired by a piligrimage to Venkatachala are mentioned in the Rig Veda and Asthadasa Puranas. In these epics, Sri Venkateswara is described as the great bestower of boons.

There are several legends associated with the manifestation of the Lord at Tirumala. The Temple has its origins in Vaishnavism, an ancient sect which advocates the principles of equality and love, and prohibits animal sacrifice. 

Sri Balaji Temple is open 7 days of the week
