Sri Shirdi Sai Baba Temple. S V S Temple Street, Labbipet, Vijayawada. Andhra Pradesh.

Aum Sai Ram

This is the 14th & Final temple visited by us during our 10th Pilgrimage to Sri Shirdi Sai Baba Temples at Vijayawada on Saturday, 22nd Oct 2011. This is also the 62nd temple visited by me in pilgrimage series on which i'm writing this article about.

I would like to thank my Brother Dr. Chethan Raj for providing me with accomodation & trasportation during my visit to Vijayawada. I would also like to thank Mrs. Padma karunakaram for accompanying me during this entire 10th Pilgrimage & also helping me out in writing the articles with the Data provided by her. I would also like to thank the temple in charge of all the temples covered by me for allowing me to take photograph & also for providing me with the complete details on the temple.

To see the complete list of temple visited by me during my 10 Pilgrimages covering karnataka, Andhra Pradesh & Tamilnadu check the links in the sidebar under pilgrimage series.


This Sri Shirdi Sai Baba temple is built on S V S Road in labbipet of Vijayawada town. It is a small temple dedicated to Sri Shirdi Sai Baba. A 3.5ft Marble statue of Sai Baba showing his Abhaya hastha is installed in this temple. This temple was inaugurated on 07th June 1998. A Dwarakamai with a statue of Baba in sitting posture is also installed to the side of the sanctum.

This temple has been Air Conditioned & if one reads the sign board at the entrance of the temple, it is written as Sri Shirdi Sai Baba Mandiram A/C in telugu Language. I don't understand one thing here? why has it been specifically mentioned as A/C temple when almost all Sai Temples in Vijayawada are infact Air Conditioned to beat the Summer Warm Spell.

On Sri Rama Navami, Guru Pournima, Sri Sai Punyathithi & Thursdays, special Puja's are performed & Thirtha Prasad is distributed in the temple premises. Large gathering of Devotees can been seen on thurdays & saturdays as it is near to the very famous venkateshwara swamy temple in Vijayawada.

On sunday, 23rd October 2011 we went successfully completed our 11th Pilgrimage by visiting 2 temple of Sri shirdi Sai Baba at machilipatnam. I was very Lucky to see the 54ft Naga Sai Temple at Machilipatnam, about which we had previously posted articles in our Sai Photo Blog. More on Machilipatnam Pilgrimage in the coming article on Pilgrimage series.
