I went to this temple 5 years ago. Kanipakam is a village which is located in chittoor district of andhra pradesh. Basically it is famous for the varasiddhi vinayaka temple. It is the ons of the top andhera pradesh place to visit. This is one of the ideal weekend gateway near bangalore. This temple was constructed in the 11th century by chola king and was expanded further in 1336 by vinayanagara kings. The security immigrantion of the olace is good and the hotels price is also reasonable and your safety is up to you so I would like to suggest every one to visit there atleast once.
