This 500 year old temple is dedicated to Lord Venkateswara and is famous for fulfilling “Visa” wishes of devotees seeking to go abroad! The devotees follow a specific procedure while seeking wishes. They offer 11 “pradakshinas” or circumambulation around the temple. Once the wish is granted, they take 108 pradakshinas of the temple to show their gratitude and thank the God.
Taramati Baradari is a remarkable music hall with unbelievable acoustics and our next halt in the Hyderabad tour in one day. Taramati was the favourite dancer of the Abdullah Qutub Shah who was the 7th Sultan of Golconda. He built this music hall with astonishingly fine acoustics so that her voice would reach him at the Golconda Fort located 3 KM away.
Qutub Shahi Tombs were erected in the memory of the old kings of Golconda. The arch, columns, dome minarets, and galleries look exquisite and are surrounded by gardens called Ibrahim Bagh. As per legend, these tombs were revered during the rule of the Qutub Shahi Kings and even criminals taking refuge here were pardoned.
