Story Behind the Name of Kanaka Durga Temple:

Before Krita Yuga, a Yaksha named Keeluda did penance for Ammavara and appeared and asked her to stay in his heart. Ammavaru asked Keelu to stand as a mountain after slaying the demon in Krit Yuga and said that she would stand on that mountain. Keeladu turns into Keeladri and waits for Ammavari. Keeladri became Indrakiladri because the Indra deities used to come here to worship the Goddess. Mahishasuramardhi who shines here has become Kanaka Durga because of her shining with Kanakavarnam. Here Arjuna performed penance for Lord Shiva and received Pashupatastra from Lord Shiva. So this area became Vijayawada.

Sri Durga Malleswara Swamyvarla Devasthanam Provides accommodation to the pilgrims in the form of choultries and guest houses.  Pilgrims can visit the temple website for all the guest houses or the devasthanams details for the accommodation and contact the respective authorities. Since the competition is very high throughout the year, if it is not possible to get a room provided by the Sri Durga Malleswara Swamyvarla Devasthanam, pilgrims can approach locals for private accommodation.

Sri Durga Malleswara Swamyvarla Devasthanam Trust Board organized a meeting recently to discuss the budget of Rs.70 Crore that is going to be released by the state government for the developmental works in the Kanaka Durga Temple. The board also wanted to increase the timings of the temple and to make Nithya Annadanam available for the devotees post-pandemic.

The Devasthanam Trust Board also proposed to reduce the rent at Guest houses and Devasthanams rooms.
