Located in the Chittoor district of Andhra Pradesh, Tirupati is known for its Venkateshwara Temple, which is considered to be one of the most popular pilgrimage centres in the country. Tirumala is the home to seven peaks of Tirumala Hills. The Tirupati Balaji temple is one of the busiest pilgrimages for Hindus and hosts a mad pilgrim rush.
Every day, thousands of devotees visit Tirupati Balaji temple in order to receive blessings from Lord Venkateshwara. However, given the number of tourists visiting the temple each day, it becomes difficult to receive blessings due to long queues.
Tourists who are unaware of online ticketing, or forgot to take a ticket, can purchase the tatkal darshan ticket at the temple. The ticket costs Rs 300 per person, whereas children under 12 years of age do not need to purchase a ticket.
If you are booking the ticket online, one needs to keep the following things in mind:
• One needs to keep their PAN Card, Aadhar Card, Passport and/or Voter ID handy while booking online tickets.
