History of Sree Padmanabhaswamy Temple





Sree Padmanabhaswamy Temple is a Hindu temple located in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, India. It is dedicated to Lord Vishnu and is considered one of the 108 Divya Desams. The temple is known for its architectural beauty and is considered one of the richest temples in the world, with a treasure estimated to be worth billions of dollars. The temple was opened for public worship in the 19th century and has since become a major pilgrimage site for Hindus. In 2011, a legal case led to the discovery of a secret underground chamber, leading to the unearthing of a vast treasure trove, including gold, silver and precious stones. The temple is managed by a trust appointed by the royal family of Travancore.
