MANGALAGIRI

There are three choultries of this temple in addition to a loacal fund choultry, a Madhava choultry, a vysya choultry and a Brahman choultry. The pilgrims are given all facilities for comfortable stay here.

The Lord that is worshipped here is Lord Narayana in Narasimha Swamy incarnation. The peculiarity in this temple is that jaggery water, or what is locally known as Panaka, is given as an offering to the Lord. The jaggery water is actually poured into the mouth of the Lord, and Lord Narayana shows that he has fully satisfied himself, when half of water is thrown back as a prasada to the devotees.
