It was amazing and challenging visit to these temples in Ahobilam Hills in Andhra Pradesh, India.There are nine altogether, called NAVA NARASIMHA. Five of them in the hills, you must go trekking and climbing, walking in the stream, pebbles, boulders for 4 Km and then climbing about 700 steep steps. At the top, you water sprinkling from the rocks and then visit JWALA NARASIMHA. Other temples, you have to go by 4-wheeler jeep as way is just a track. It's fantastic experience to visit these places.

It's rather a small temple yet a very important one considering the religiousness of the place. Legend is that the devotees have to register their presence to Lord Ganesha by offering prayers, who keeps records of you visit to Sri Sailam (Lord Mallikarjuna). Your visit to Sri Sailam is incomplete without a visit to this temple; so do not miss it. The temple complex is neat and well maintained with ample space for vehicle parking.

since we only had couple of days to take off, we decided to go to AP side, since we hadnt travelled much in this direction. We decided to go to Gandikota (India's Grand Canyon) and Belum Caves (India's Luray Caverns). Since its a 6 hour drive, we didnt want to drive back the same day and staying in Anantapur wasnt much appealing - both because its a developed city and also the travel would be 2 hour+. Also, this wasnt a 2-day itinerary, so we searched and found Yaganti temple, with its unique caves and historical significance. So, here was the itinerary: 1. Start in morning from Whitefield and reach Royal County resort in Proddatur (an hour from Gandikota) 2. visit Gandikota in evening 3. Visit Belum caves in morning, then go to Yaganti temple and return in evening. From Belum caves, we set forth to Yaganti temple. On the way , we stopped at the Owk reservoir wall to take some good pictures of the water body on one side and lush green fields on the other. A little over an hour, with mostly good roads, we reached Yaganti, parked our car and setforth for the main temple. Its definitely a very old temple, we can see the brick roof from olden times. Note that shorts are not allowed for men inside the main temple. There is a bath area, which we bypassed and completed our Darshan. The main temple connects through a bridge the 3 main caves - each of them has steep steps that take you to the worship chamber. Definitely a unique experience and great photos. It took as an hour and a half for visiting all the places of this complex (i.e. the 3 caves). it has an extraordinary setting and extreme scenic beauty. The Nandi here is believed to be growing in size. The 3 caves are natural caves and are situated around the temple - the Agastya Cave, the Venkateswara Cave and the Veera Brahmam Cave. Another unique feature of Yaganti is the Pushkarini, which is a little pond in which water flows from the mouth of a hill. Although most places on web you see temple closes between 1-3, one of the priests in Agastya cave said it doesnt close in afternoon. We then drove directly back to Bangalore, the road from Yaganti to NH44 was mixed bag with several very bad patches and several very good. Once we hit NH44 it was smooth, but toll of 300rs total for 200km+ drive is sure exhorbitant...

Here pilgrims comes from very far places to see this temple, near this place there are steps to reach shikara, above shikara there will be Nandi, there is a old saying if any pilgrim see trishul (like structure very far from this temple) from Nandi then there will be no next life. Every pilgrim should check there fate :)
