Sri Kanaka Mahalakshmi Temple – Navratri 2025 Celebrations in Vizag
Location
Sri Kanaka Mahalakshmi
Temple is located in the historic Burujupeta area of Visakhapatnam
(Vizag), Andhra Pradesh. It is one of the most revered temples in the city
and a spiritual anchor for locals and pilgrims alike.
Temple Significance
- The temple is dedicated to Sri
Kanaka Mahalakshmi Ammavaru, considered the presiding deity of
Vizag.
- According to legend, the idol was
discovered in a well near the fort of the local rulers and installed in
the center of the road in 1912.
- When authorities attempted to
relocate the idol in 1917, a plague outbreak occurred. Locals believed the
disturbance angered the goddess, and once the idol was restored, the
plague subsided.
- Devotees believe that wishes are
fulfilled when prayers are offered with a pure heart. Thursdays are
especially auspicious.
