About the temple

Alwarpet Anjaneyar Temple is one of Chennai's oldest Hanuman temples, with roots tracing to the 18th century when Salivahana Chettiars discovered a self-manifested idol of Hanuman while digging a well. The shrine draws devotees through the day for darshan and aarti, with the atmosphere reaching its peak during the evening rituals and on festival days when special pujas are performed.
