MANGALAGIRI

 

Introduction

 

MANGALAGIRI is situated on the Bezwada-Guntur road and is about 8 miles by road

from Vijayawada. On the top of the Mangalagiri hill there is a famous temple

called the Panakala Nrusimhaswamy temple, which has been attracting pilgrims

from a very long time, and from all parts of the country. The nearest railway

station is Mangalagiri on the Guntur Vijayawada line but to visit the temple,

the better course would be to get down either at Vijayawada or at Guntur and

take bus connections.
