Hello,

Have you ever visited Tirupati and wondered what else we can do there after a darshan of Lord Venkateswara.

These days people make it a mini holiday trip and try to see other temples in and around Tirupati and also look for other attractions to keep the kids entertained.

Some of the attractions which are growing in popularity are the S.V. Zoological park, Science Centre, ISKCON temple, Grand World Water park, Muncipal park and Shilparamam(Arts and Crafts village).

Also, there is a proposal to open a Mythological Theme park at the foot of Tirumala hills with replicas of major hindu temples of India.


I have a description of Shilparamam in my recent article. You can read it in the following link.

thank you.
