As I stepped into the temple premises, I was captivated by its cleanliness and serene beauty. The tranquil atmosphere was palpable, making it the perfect spot for morning prayers and connecting with the divine. I was delighted to discover a small canteen within the premises, offering a delicious spread of breakfast and snacks.
What sets this temple apart is its expansive and well-maintained surroundings. The lush gardens, children's play area, and a picturesque fountain adorned with Lord Vishnu's statue added to the charm. Although the snack shop was closed during my visit, it didn't dampen my experience.
Parking is conveniently available outside the temple, although future construction in the neighborhood may pose challenges in the future. However, the temple itself remains a haven of tranquility, even on crowded days.

Its spacious grounds, children's play area, and availability of prasadam make it a delightful destination. Whether you're a local or driving from Hyderabad, this temple promises a scenic and...
