From the balcony of the temple, you\u2019ll get a splendid view of the river. The temple comes to life during the Devasena Kalyanotsavam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The temple is closed after 6 pm. However, on festival days, it is open until much later in the evening. Photography is allowed in the temple complex; however, refrain from clicking pictures inside the temple when prayers are being said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Location<\/strong>: Islampet<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Best Historical&nbsp;Places to visit in Vijayawada<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>1.
