The Venkateswara Temple

The Venkateswara Temple at Tirumala, Andhra Pradesh, in India is dedicated to Lord Vishnu as 'Venkateswara' (or Srinivasa) and attracts followers from a wide range of Hindu traditions. The temple is the world's richest in terms of the wealth of offerings (invaluable ornaments and precious jewels) and gifts given by visiting pilgrims. Gold and diamonds are the traditional choice (s) for offerings.
