Tadipatri

The town of Tadipatri is renowned for its two temples. One, the Sri Chintala Venkata Ramana Swamy Temple and the second, Sri Bugga Rama Lingeswara Swamy Temple. According to local legends, the two temples were constructed by two brothers in a single day. Legends also claim that while the former temple was completed, the second was not. Had the temple been completed, it would have turned the place into Kaashi of the South. The architecture of these temples are influenced by the Vijayanagar architectural style. Besides these two temples, Tadipatri is renowned for its granite industry. Granite mining and polishing are popular occupations. This town boasts of about 350 granite factories.
