Yadagirigutta, now known as Yadadri, is a famous Hindu pilgrimage site in Telangana, dedicated to Lord Lakshmi Narasimha Swamy, an incarnation of Lord Vishnu. Located about 60 km from Hyderabad, the temple is built on a hill and attracts thousands of devotees daily. The shrine is believed to have divine significance, as it is said that the deity self-manifested in a cave.
The Yadadri Temple, recently renovated with grand architecture using black stone, features intricate carvings and gold-plated inner sanctums. The temple complex also includes a Rajagopuram, a vast queue complex, and modern amenities for pilgrims. Visitors can explore Surendrapuri, a mythological museum nearby, which showcases Hindu epics with life-size sculptures. The serene hilltop, spiritual ambiance, and improved facilities make Yadagirigutta/Yadadri a must-visit religious and cultural destination.
