Ganpati temple in #Kanipakam village, located in #Chittoor district of the Indian state of #AndhraPradesh
Temple was established in the early 11th century CE by the Chola king Kulothunga Chola I and was enhanced even more in 1336 by the Emperors of Vijayanagara dynasty.
Years ago there lived three brothers in a village near viharipura, one of them was blind, one deaf and the other dumb. One day they were drawing water from well and water dried out. Hense they started digging down and were shocked to see blood oozing from the ground.
On further excavation it was found to be "UDHBHAVA GANAPATI SWAMY"
Brothers worshipped ganapa and got rid of their physical defects.
Whole village worshipped ganapathi by offering coconuts.
The coconut water started flowing into a stream, to a distance of more than one and a quarter acres. This phenomenon led to the coinage of the word "KANIPAKAM"
where "Kani"means wetland and "Pakam" means flow of water into wetland.
