Kanipakam, Vinayaka Temple in Chittoor District of Andhra Pradesh State
Kanipakam, Vinayaka Temple in Chittoor District of Andhra Pradesh State: Vinayaka Temple, also known as Sri Varasidhi Vinayaka Swamy Temple, stands as a Hindu shrine dedicated to Ganesha. Situated in Kanipakam within the Chittoor district of Andhra Pradesh, this temple is approximately 11 km from Chittoor and 68 km from Tirupati. According to legend, three brothers, each afflicted with muteness, deafness, and blindness, were excavating a well for their field. Their digging tool accidentally struck a hard object within the well, causing blood to flow. Continuing their excavation, the well's waters miraculously cured the brothers of their disabilities. The villagers, responding to the spectacle, discovered the deity of Ganesha at the site. Despite further efforts to unearth the deity's base, the villagers were unable to locate it. The Ganesha deity now resides within the perpetually filled well, creating a unique and sacred ambiance.
