About the temple

Manakula Vinayagar Temple in Puducherry is an ancient shrine dedicated to Lord Ganesha that predates French colonial rule, surviving multiple attempts at destruction to remain a revered pilgrimage site today. 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.
