This temple was the birth place of Vasavi Kanyaka Paremeswari Amma. This is the main temple and we can saw Vasavi Matha along with Nagareswara Swamy and Mahishasura mardhini. The temple was beautiful and peaceful. Here Anna Prasadam offered to devotees daily three times.

Beautiful temple and can have peaceful time…

There is still some work is going on at this time… But it wont stop you to come and visit this temple with your family and can have meditation and prayer to Vasavi Devi 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Blessed with Vasavi matha. Jai Vasavi. Happy to be here. Pleasant place to visit with family. Temple is near to highway. Autos are also available from Palakollu Railway station. Temple actually located in pengonda. Everything is developing in the temple. Happy to spend time here and got blessings of matha.

We visited the temple and it is amazing. It is.the birth place of Sri Vasavi Kanyaka Parameswari ammavaru. The idol of 90 feet height made up of panchaloha is installed in the Nageswara Swamy temple. Very well maintained. Ample car parking available.

Vasavi Kanyaka Parameshvari is a Hindu goddess, primarily revered by the Komati community of Andhra Pradesh. She is primarily recognised by her adherents as a virgin form of Parvati, and sometimes also identified as a form of Lakshmi in Vaishnava tradition.

Very happy to see the temple as it is not just about construction, this place reflects the self respect of Arya vysyas, who did not surrender to the king of those days. About 108 couples belonging to 108 gothra of Arya vysyas got ablazed and sacrificed their lives in support to Goddess Vasavi kanyaka parameswari. I see this as a temple of self respect and integrity. Jai vasavi 🙏

Super peaceful when less crowds are there. Breeze coming from shore is cool and being in presence of God makes it super comfortable.

Oh my god I loved this place😍 !!! I have been to many temples but this was most special. I never felt like going back from temple but had no choice and eventually I had to 😅. There is an old temple and a new one next to each other and that tall deity is in the new temple. The temple will be closed from 12 to 4. I think there will be Anna dasoha daily in old temple.

The Birth place of Vasavi Matha. The holy Sri Vasavi Kanyaka Parameswari temple which finds mention in various ancient religious texts. According to a legend, Vasavi Kanyaka Paratneswariwas was famous for her beauty. The holy temple enshrining the triple deities- Sri Nagareswaraswamy, Mother Kanyakaparameswari and Mahishasuramardini. The temple is built in strict accordance with vastu sastra and so possessing sturdy prakars, tall gopuras, spacious courtyards, several minishrines, vast garbagrihas, grand mukhamandapas etc. it faces east and a tall tower surmounting over the broad mahadwara beckons the visitors with its beautiful sculptural pieces adoring it from top to bottom and on all four sides too. In front of it lies a vast courtyard with several buildings housing the office room, choultry and quarters for the staff. In the second Prakara, there are many mandapams installed with adorable deities, like Vinayaka, Navagrahas, Lord Venkateswara and Kaala Bhairava besides the exquisitely made colorful statues of Mother Kanyakaparameswari standing in fire -pit with parents by her side and A beautiful mirror house.

The garbha griha of Nagareswaraswamy is quite spacious, and its spick and span together with the elevated vedh for the lingam in the center is masterly planned and tastefully executed. The imposing ling installed on a broad, high pedestial adorned with colorful garlands and the triple lines studded with diamonds is so captivating that the devotees raise their hands in veneration the moment it gleams into their sight. And feel transported to Kailas for a while. Its size and sheen are its plus points. The other two garbha grihas frankling this housing Mahishasuramardhini and Vasavamba are grand, and the icons beautified with dazzling jewels and colorful outfit mesmerises the adorers. A single darsan leaves unforgettable impression on the minds of the devotees and beckons repeated visits on and on.

The gigantic statue of vasavi kanyaka parameshwari will keep u spellbound..The lights on the top in the background look like crystals/diamonds adding to the beauty of this statue..The place has 4 halls each containing the details of gotras and the rishi from whom the gothram originated .There is a brief description of each of the gotram which is very informative!! Definitely a place to be visit!!

A great temple to visit in penugonda. Goddess Sri Vasavi Kanyakaparameswari Maatha temple. Looks beautiful now after many renovation, still some works are going on. This temple is with endowment department. Arya Vysyas come a lot to this temple. Many events occur at this place. In the temple you'll find the details of all the gothra namas available each on a pillar on stone.

I'm worded by seeing such a huge Vasavi matha, very wonderful temple

Huge idol and big temple, a great sight and a glass gallery in adjacent choultry showcasing light display present. Overall it is a religious marvel

I recently had the opportunity to visit Vasavi Temple, and it was a truly enriching experience. The temple's serene and spiritual atmosphere instantly made me feel at peace.

The architecture of the temple was breathtaking, reflecting the rich cultural and historical heritage of the region. The intricate carvings, vibrant colors, and attention to detail were awe-inspiring.

Inside the temple, I had the privilege of participating in a prayer ceremony. It was a humbling experience, and I felt a deep sense of connection and spirituality. The chants and rituals were performed with devotion, and I left with a sense of inner peace and tranquility.

The temple grounds were well-maintained, and I could see the care that goes into preserving this sacred place. The gardens and surrounding areas were also peaceful, making it a perfect spot for meditation and reflection.

Sri Nagareswara mahishasura mardahani and Vasavi kanyaka parameswari temple located in penugonda is most prominent and powerful temple. Here inside the premises there is lord Vinayaka,lord Venkateswara and kala bhairava temples also. Nityannadanam is being conducted here on daily basis.

Holy temple, must visit to see Amma in bronze material
