It lies about 152-km northwest of Chennai in the Palkonda Hills. Tirupati is known as the abode of the Hindu god Venkateshvara (also spelt as 'Venkatesvara'), "Lord of Seven Hills". About 10-km northwest of Tirupati, at an elevation of 750m, is the sacred hill of Tirumala, which was considered very holy. One of the most important pilgrimage centers in India, the temple draws millions of pilgrims and is believed to be the busiest pilgrimage centre in the world. History The Pallavas of Kanchipuram (9th century AD), Cholas of Tanjore (10 century) , Pandyas of mathura and Vijayanagara pradhans (14th & 15th centuries) were committed devotees of Lord Venkateswara. The statues of Sri Krishna Devaraya and his spouse stand in the premises of the temple. After the decline of Vijayanagara Empire, kings from various states like the king of Mysore and Gadwal, worshiped the lord as pilgrims and gifted various ornaments and valuables to the temple. Raghoji Bhonsle, the Maharastrian commander visited the temple and made a permanent arrangement regarding the regular pujas to be done to the Lord. In 1843 the temple gave up administrative authority of Venkateswara Temple along with the temples in the village to the head of Hatthimji monastery in Tirumala. Till 1933 the administration of the temple had been wielded by the head of that monastery, Hathiram Mahantha. Tirupati was recognised as a municipal Corporation in 2002. Although Chittoor is the headquarters of the district, much of the business activities and major government establishments (and operations) take place in Tirupati. With improved infrastructure and due to various efforts by the state government, Tirupati is well turning into a business hub of southern Andhra pradesh. Notable large and medium scale industries along side a lot of small scale industries that call Tirupati as their home base, include the government owned Railway Carriage Repair Shop, Amararaja Power Systems, Lanco Industries. There are plans to improve the infrastructure to set up IT service based organizations in Tirupati. Financial institutions like HDFC are setting their back office operations in Tirupati. Tirupati is becoming the education hub for the nearby areas because of the strong presence of Educational Institutions and Universities.
