There are several theme parks around the world. But can you imagine a theme park of all the holiest shrines in India, from Kashmir to Kanyakumari, all in one place? Well, this is exactly what you can do at Surendrapuri, Telangana. It houses the life-size replicas and deities from the famous pilgrimage places in India, allowing devotees to experience something so mystical.
This is the Surendrapuri Kunda Satyanarayana Kaladhamam, a mythological theme park in Telangana, situated 59 km from the city of Hyderabad. It is a one-of-its-kind destination which makes it a go-to weekend getaway from Hyderabad. The place is dotted with stunning and intricately designed sculptures and stunning replicas of famous shrines.
From exploring the churning of the oceans to get the nectar, referred to as Samudra Manthan to getting a glimpse of the char dham yatra, devotees will have a memorable experience. The five-face Hanuman, aka, Panchmukhi Hanuman statue in this theme park attracts the attention of devotees. For the first time, nine separate temples for the Navagrahas have been built along with their consorts, vahanas (vehicles) and deities.
The Kunda Satyanarayana Kaladhamam falls on Yadadri-Bhuvanagiri, Raigiri Road in Telangana. It was built by Sri Kunda Satyanarayana in memory of his youngest son, Surender, who died of illness in 1991. The temple is single-handedly conceptualised and created by the man who created a mythological marvel.
It is an ideal place to see all the holy pilgrims places of India in one place- from the Golden Temple of Amritsar to Ramanathasway Temple of Rameswaram, Kali Temple of Kolkata to Jagannath Temple of Puri, Somnath Temple of Gujarat to Guruvayoor Krishna Temple and Sri Venkateshwara Temple of Tirupati. All the replicas can be found here.
