Padutirupathi, Hindu temple in Karkala, India

The Sri Venkataramana Temple features traditional Vastu Shastra architecture with black stone construction and multiple ceremonial halls for religious gatherings.

The Goud Saraswat Brahmins constructed this temple on April 25, 1537, after migrating from Goa to Karnataka due to Portuguese colonial expansion.

The temple maintains identical religious ceremonies to Tirupati, including daily rituals such as Dwara Pooja, Suprabhatam, and Naivedyam throughout the day.

The temple generates income through devotee offerings and rental fees from its Srinivasa Kalyana Mantapa, which serves as a venue for community events.

The name Padutirupathi stems from its geographical position, as 'Padu' means west in Kannada, indicating its location relative to the Tirumala temple.
