Splendid Tirumala....

                        Today morning I and two of my friends started to Tirupathi at 5 am in new Bustand,Katpadi.We boarded a deluxe non stop bus to Tirupathi whose fare was Rs.90.As one of my friend lives near Tirupathi we visited her in the morning and had home made breakfast.Then we started to pedastrian path to reach Trumala hills which is called "SREEVAARI METTU".The view from this path looked like...

                       This path has 2450 steps in total covering about 6km of distance from chandragiri.There was a temple of Lord Narayana at the start point of sreevaari mettu.We prayed lord to give strength to walk through this path and had prasadam there.Now we started to walk,our path looked like this......

                         This path took us to "dhivya darshan" ticket counter where we got our free darshan tickets and  proceeded to walk.The total time we took for walking was 2 hours.Then we reached the end point of this path which had a beautiful arch with carvings on it.There were beautiful gardens with greeneries.

                       Then we started to darshan in tirumala there we have found many trees with a variety of fruits.Then we had lunch in a restaurant.After lunch we went in queue line,then we finished darshan in 1hour 30 minutes.Then we collected laddus and started to tirupathi.

                         After reaching tirupathi,we decided to go to Kapilatheertham.So we went there and spent good amount of time there.Here we saw a peculiar variety of monkeys.....!!Weather there is really pleasant and all our tiredness was gone.Then we went to Manasa Fast Foods in Tirupathi and boarded the bus to reach vellore.Some of the pics we have taken in kapilatheeratham are,

                    Though the trip was piligrimage,we enjoyed the nature on the hills of Tirumala and had good time spent with friends.So Tirumala trip was a splendid experience and a memorable piligrimage.....!!! :)
