BIRLA MANDIR

Built in 1976 and constructed entirely of white marble, this temple has quickly become the most popular in Hyderabad. Perched on a hill 300 meters above sea level, its original architecture, a mixture of Dravidian, Rajasthani and Odisha styles, and its pristine white color, captivate the visitor. Dedicated primarily to Venkateswara, a form of Vishnu, there are also altars dedicated to Shiva, Ganesh, Hanuman, Brahma, Saraswathi, Lakshmi. When evening comes, the temple is illuminated and offers a striking spectacle.
