🕉️ Tirumala Tirupati Trip Part - 1
Our journey started with an unexpected twist! After traveling from Betamcherla and taking the sleeper train from Nandyal, we reached Tirupati by 4 AM. We went to Vishnu Nivasam for SSD tokens, but the counters were closed till the afternoon.
Instead of wasting time, we visited the beautiful Sri Govindaraja Swamy Temple (getting blessings from the temple elephant was so peaceful 🐘) and the ISKCON Temple.
Locals told us the rush on the hill was surprisingly low. So, we skipped the token wait, enjoyed the free hot milk at Alipiri, and started our trek with full energy! 🥾
🌿 What’s next? The beautiful forest trails, animals, Mokalla Mettu, and reaching Tirumala in Part 2!
