Tirupati Balaji Temple, officially known as Sri Venkateswara Swamy Temple, is one of the holiest and richest temples in the world. Situated on the seven hills of Tirumala, Andhra Pradesh, India, the temple is devoted to Lord Venkateswara, an incarnation of Lord Vishnu, who is believed to have emerged in Kali Yuga to save mankind and grant salvation.
