Sai Baba Temple

Locally known as the "Second Shirdi," this Sai Baba temple in Ongole draws large numbers of devotees, particularly on Thursdays — the day associated with the saint — and on his major festival days. The temple is modest in scale but actively maintained, with daily aratis and a steady flow of pilgrims from across Andhra Pradesh.

The temple sits within Ongole town and is easy to combine with a stop at the railway station or bus stand. Expect crowds at festival times; the rest of the year it is a quiet place to step into.
