Vepanjeri means a sacred place. Vem+Pancha+Hari = Vem, Pancha, Hari means, Vem = Sins, Pancha = Five, Hari = that removes; a sacred place that removes five sins. And in course of time Vem pancha hari became Vepanjeri.
Vepanjeri is a village situated 15km east of Chittoor in AP. Except the sacred image of the Lord Lakshminarayana with the Goddess Lakshmi Ammavaru seated on te left side of the Lord's lap, most part of the temple was non-existent. 1986 saw the religious exercises in the newly constructed temple with necessary masonary support. After His re-emergence since 1986 and onwards the wishes of the people are fulfilled consequently drawing more and more devotees to narrate th esame experience of fulfilment justifying the name "Kalpavruksha" and Venpanjeri steadily emerged as a subcentre of pilgrimage.
Lord Lakshminarayana in His sublime bounty is here to assist te humanity by participating in various religious components. The temple management has to plan to facilitate participation of the individals in the Nitya Kaikaryams of the Lord.
Temples are certainly a major centre of attraction in Chittoor. There is a certain kind of peace in the atmosphere there. I always enjoy my time there.If you are looking for planning a trip there, here are a few famous places to visit in chittoor that you shouldn't miss out.
