Dear Sri Srinivasan,

The pAncha Naarasimha Kshethrams are

1. Mangalagiri  (10 km from Vijayawada on Vijayawada-Guntur Road )
2. Vedadri - 60 KM from Vijayawada on Vijayawada-Hyderabad highway. Please take turn at small town called chillakallu and cross the The Madras Cement factory (Ramaco cements) and proceed further
3. Mattapalli - 140 km from Vijayawada - Please take a turn from Kodad (100 km on Vijayawada-Hyderabad highway) - cross huzur nagar (15 km from kodad) and mattaplli is 25 km from huzur nagar. You can stay in Sri Mukkur Swamy's "Yagna Vaatica"  aka "Madras Guest House". The facility is managed by Sri Mukkur Swamy's Trust and the accommodation as well as food is provided to the devotees. There are no charges for the rooms and the food (as part of nityannadaanam). Contact Sri Gopal, who manages the annadaanam and accommodation facilities. Ph. +91 94406 57333
4. Vadapalli - From Mattapalli 80 km. You have to come back to huzur nagar and proceed towards Miryalguda route and ask for Raasi cement factory. Vadapaali temple is located opposite to Raasi cement factory
5. Ketavaram - From vadapalli about 60km. There are two choices. You can go to Ketavaram from Mattapalli by boat/road (as ketavaram is located on the opposite bank of mattapalli) or from vadapalli towards guntur you've to take a left turn at a place called 'piduguralla". Inside it will be about 25km. From piduguralla vijayawada will be about 60km.

Hence I would suggest Vijayawada - Mangalgiri- Vedadri-Mattapalli (stay overnight or couple of days) - Vadapalli - Ketavaram - Vijayawada.

I would also recommend you to visit "Agiripalli" which is 15 km from Vijayawada where the presiding deity is "Vyagra Narasimhar" (Puli mukam). This place is in between Vijayawada-Nuzvid route.

For travel, you can contact Sai Car Travels (their cars regularly ply around these places). Owner name is Chanti and this number is : +91 92464 97799

We four senior citizens (2 Gents & 2 Ladies) are plasnning to visit 5 Narasimha Kshetrams near Vijayawada. during mid December.  While  routes to Mattapalle & Mangalagiri appear to be clear, we are not sure of other locations.  Can any knowledgable person in the group  guide us?  Are there any person at Vijayawada who can be contacted by phone to arrange a taxi to take us to these places (Driver should be familiar with the routes, timings of temples etc.) & also arrange for a neat (But not expensive} accomodation for stay at Vijayawada for 2 or 3 days?  Thanks in advance,                   Srinivasan.
