    The evening aarti at Sri Kalyana Venkateswara is quite a sensory experience the lamps glow, the chants rise, and the whole complex feels almost otherworldly. If you can stay an hour or two after sunset you’ll catch the main aarti around 6 pm and then the late night puja that goes until midnight. It’s a good way to finish the day before heading up to Tirumala the next morning. For a quick overnight stay, Marasa Sarovar Premiere Tirupati is just a few kilometres away and offers easy access to the temple.
