Akshaya Tritiya Day or Chandanotsavam

Only on this day in the whole year, one can have Nijaroopa Darshan of Narasimha Swamy. Nijaroopa Darshan will be available only for 12 hours. During this time, the temple will be heavily crowded with VVIPs.

While clearing the sandal paste for Nijaroopa Darshan, temple doors will be closed. This event will take 1 hour to make the arrangements for Nijaroopa Darshan. This event will be held by the temple priests, after which Ananda Gajapathi dynasty will have the first darshan as they are trustees for this temple.

For all other days in a year, Lord Sri Varaha Lakshmi Narasimha Swamy will be fully covered with sandal paste.

Giripradakshinam

Walking around Simhachalam and Kailasagiri Hills. The deity will be taken out in a procession around the holy hills. This event will be held on Full moon day in the month of Ashada (Jun/Jul). Giripradakshinam will cover 40 km which takes more than 8 hours to complete one full round.

I see that temple is 13 kms from the airport. Can we go to the temple, finish the darshanam and comeback to the airport in 3 hours? Is it practically possible?
