About AnjaneyaSwamy Temple, Beechupally
The Beechupally Sree Anjaneya Swamy Temple stands as a prominent spiritual landmark positioned where National Highway 44 crosses the River Krishna in Itikyala Mandal, Jogulamba Gadwal district. Established in the 16th century by Sri Vyasaraya, the Rajaguru of the Vijayanagara Empire, the temple houses one of the 732 Hanuman idols installed by this revered saint across India for protective purposes. The shrine's unique riverbank location creates a tranquil environment for meditation and prayer, with the sacred Krishna River flowing nearby. The temple gained significance as a major hub during Krishna Pushkaralu celebrations and serves as a protective deity for travelers passing through this vital corridor. Devotees seek blessings for protection during travel, courage, and relief from planetary doshas, particularly Shani Dosha. The temple is renowned for rituals including Aaku Puja (betel leaf offering) and Sindoor Puja, and remains a primary site for ritual dips in the Krishna River for the region.
