Ahobilam, located in Andhra Pradesh, is one of the main holy places for

Lord Narasimha. According to some Puranas it is the location where Lord

Narasimha blessed Bhakta Prahlada and killed the demon Hiranyakashipu.

In the pictures below, the tall mountain is the pillar that Lord Narasimha

appeared from. Originally it was a pillar in the palace of Hiranyakashipu.
