Annavaram is immensely popular for the performance of the Sri Satyanarayana Vratham, a sacred ritual to Lord Vishnu performed by newlywed couples and for household prosperity. It is second only to Tirupati in Andhra Pradesh in terms of daily pilgrims.
Mythology
The Lord appeared in the dream of a devotee and ordered him to trace his idol left on the Ratnagiri hill. The idol was discovered in 1891, and a small temple was built. The name Annavaram means 'the place where boons are generously granted'.
