'''Chippagiri''' is a [[mandal]] located in the [[Kurnool district]] of [[Andhra Pradesh]], India.<ref>{{cite web |title=Layout page |url=https://areaprofiler.gov.in/aboutUsIntgeratedPES.do?stateCode=0&lbCode=5493&languageId=1 |website=areaprofiler.gov.in}}</ref> Chippagiri is one of the smallest villages in the [[Rayalaseema]] region. It is about {{Convert|15|km|mi|0}} from Kasapuram, which is {{Convert|5|km|mi|0}} from [[Guntakal]].

==History==
The Chippagiri village was previously named Bhaskara Shrine because a [[Sage (philosophy)|sage]] named Bhaskara Muni was known to have carried out prayers on the hill. It is believed that the shrine was moved to Hampi due to severe water problems and the shrine was renamed from Shilpagiri to Chippagiri (also known as Andhra Hampi). The temples of [[Virupakshiswarar Temple, Mylapore|Virupaksheswara]] and Chennekeswara were first built in Chippagiri.

Bhogeswara, the Hindu temple, was visited by [[Vijayanagara Empire]] emperor [[Krishnadevaraya]]. The legend says that while he stayed overnight in the village, [[Anjaneya]] came into his dreams and said to build temples in the area.

[[Vijaya Dasa]] (1682–1755) lived in Chippagiri.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.sumadhwaseva.com/dasaru/vijaya-dasaru/|title=Vijaya Dasaru|year=2016|website=Sumadhwa Seva}}</ref>{{unreliable source?|date=January 2018}}<ref>{{Cite web |title=Archived copy |url=http://www.vijayadasaru.in/ |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160919003811/http://www.vijayadasaru.in/ |archive-date=19 September 2016 |access-date=14 June 2016 |df=dmy-all}}</ref>
