One of the best well maintained temple I have ever visited. The way they respected all the people who visited the temple is amazing. Not even in single place they scolded or treated people unequally and the maintenance of the surroundings and bathroom is mind blowing . The Annadhanam they provided was the best. One should visit this temple at-least once in a lifetime. and please avoid giving biscuits and buns to wild animals. They are not meant to eat those junk items

The best Tirumala Darshan is the one that gives you the most time and opportunity to be in the presence of Lord Venkateswara. There are a few different ways to get this kind of Darshan, but they all require some planning and preparation.
One of the most sacred shrine for Hindus. The peace & pleasure that you'll get doing Lord Venkateshwara Darshans here is unparalleled. This place can get very crowded hence I'm sharing few useful tips for people who'd like to visit here.
Tips:
1. Book Darshan tickets in advance on their official website.
2. There are many different kinds of Darshans available, book as per your belief and affordability. Do remember that the amount you are paying is basically a donation which is being put to good use by TTD.
3. Weekdays are definitely less crowded than the weekends.
4. You can walk up to the temple from Allipiri or take a transport.

We have been visiting this place nearly once in 3 months and each time come back with renewed enthusiasm. TTD has been doing an excellent job of continually building / improving and maintaining this place.

Free darsanan tokens available near Tirupathi station & For 300 you have to Book in website on particular dates.
If you have recomondation letter you can enter into VIP BREAK DARSANAM( Monday-thursday).
In this you can see God very nearer.

A beautiful place, must visit for anyone. This place doesn't need any introduction to it's greatness factor. Booking tickets in advance is highly suggested because as soon as tickets are issued for this place for darshan, they all are booked immediately. Stay and tickets should be decided beforehand for a good travel.

My experience today ie on 7th Sept 2023 was very good and I am not able to express my feelings. I went for suprabhatam seva and got an opportunity given by lord to see him from very near less than 10feet distance.
It was like a one in a life time moment I got Submerged with in God and the idol was so huge and i will consider as lucky. Om namo venkatesaya

Complete Guide:
Tirupati Temple is maintained by The Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD).
Once you reach tirupati, either by train or by bus from either Chennai or Hyderabad, go to the Railway Station and find the TTD office, there you'll get easy access to Temple pass without any hurry.
( Note: Without Temple pass, they'll not let you enter)
Stay at any place, ample number of hotels and lodges are available at hand.
Let alone the pass timings, reach the temple early morning only and from the assigned circle only( ours was ATGH Circle).
Do not wear half clothes. No half pants and half shirts, prefer wearing pants or better, Dhoti.
It might take up some time as there are more than 5-6L devotees visiting Sri Swamy everyday(Min 5 Hrs to Max there's no limit).
Surely eat Annaprasadam after buying laddos for distribution to family and friends.
For any queries, do let me know!

A very peaceful and spiritual place. Situated between the mountains very beautiful place to visit with your family. And to connect your soul with God. Climate of Tirumala is awesome like movies. But only thing which is not good is that you have to spent lots of time in line for Lord venktesha Darsham. Very good place to visit
KIRAN RAVI
Always super. Only thing is management need to have proper planning. Some times it's taking more than 10hrs to complete Darshan. Meanwhile there will be small kids or old age people who need proper food at proper time. Accordingly some arrangements should be there. Earlier it used to be provided in the waiting halls. Now no one is concerned.

feel blessed. god gifted place where everyone should go.
here queue was arranged but people not following. in queue people running and crossing unnecessary. in queue basic facilities are there like drinking water, milk, breakfast, meal all free. We spend 30hr. In queue for darshan.

It's A Peaceful Destination, Heaven on Earth 🌎 ♥️, When u enter the Temple U will feel some Energy And Trance ! Which is unexplainable! Every One should visit once in their life 🙏 ! This temple holds many unknown history and unsolved Mystery !. One of the most visted temple

One cannot express the vibes that they get once they see lord Balaji. That feeling is something one will experience once they visit the temple. You toil a lot to enter the final phase , feet will be paining, legs will be paining but once you enter the final phase you don’t see any pain and all eyes on the lord Balaji. And then comes laddu- you eat and they you are lost . Must visit place . We visit every year to get the blessings of lord Balaji

It's one of the best temples I have ever visited. The temple is very pure with greenery everywhere. The divinity and the peace at the temple pull me towards it every time. The temple is also known for its cleanliness (clean road, clean Toilets). The authorities of the temple are so vigilant and always keep an eye on it.
The temple is renowned and prominent for its treasure and donations that come every day making it the richest temple in the world. The shrine is very famous across the country and the globe. There are also good sightseeing spots nearby where you can explore the surrounding area in local transport
