Moolavar : Sri Anjaneyar Some of the salient features of this temple are… The temple is facing east with a sanctum sanctorum. Anjaneyrar is in standing posture in anjalli hastam. A Bajanai Hall/ Meditation hall is on the back side of the temple. ARCHITECTURE The Sanctum Sanctorum was built during recent years. The sanctum sanctorum is rectangular in shape with 3 kalasas on the top. HISTORY The Luz Anjaneya Temple is one of the oldest Anjaneyar Temple in Chennai. It is believed that the original temple was constructed by Salivahana Chettiars from Mysore who migrated and settled down in Mylapore in the 18th century. Vinayagar temple was constructed in the land allotted by Carnatic Nawabs. While digging for a well this Anjaneyar murti was unearthed. Temple was constructed for the Anjaneyar on the spot, where it was unearthed. Since the temple is in the premises of Tamil Nadu Co-Operative State Agriculture and Rural Development Bank Ltd, considered as Private temple and the sign board also affixed on the temple, as the temple belongs to the bank. Maha Kumbhabhishekam was conducted on 20th March 2008. LEGENDS The Anjaneyar is also called as CA Anjaneyar- Chartered Accountant Anjaneyar, since, with the grace of Anjaneyar one can clear the CA examinations. CA aspirants throng this Anjaneyar of this Temple on Thursdays with their Hall tickets to pray, and get it clear all the examinations.

1 of the Most famous Temple located in a Prime Place Alwarpet. This Temple is fondly called as "CA Anjaneyar" Temple. We can see Hundreds & Hundreds of Children pursuing CA throng this Temple during their Exam Time with a Strong Belief that Anjaneyar would sail them thro in the Exams. On visit to this Temple, all our Worries disappear & a divine feel lasts the entire day long in our Heart. It's a MUST visit for not only Tourists but also Chennaites who have hitherto NOT heard about this Temple. As regards Car Parking, there's no designated parking lot for Temple but around 20 Cars can be parked in a Agriculture Co-op Bank on whose Premises this Temple is located. During Bank Working Hours, there will be NO scope for Car Parking. Weekend Holidays are good time to visit this Temple especially if you are coming by Car.

A beautiful small Hanuman temple inside the premises of Tamil Nadu State Cooperative Bank office. Temple is managed by this Bank. Main deity is very well decorated and it is looking so beautiful. Decoration made by Butter, dry fruits and fruits. Temple is very well maintained. I went there around 4.30. But temple is opened at 5 pm (I think the alankaram was going on). I got main Aarthi, Sadari, Theertham and also very tasty Pongal Prasad. Back side a small hall type place is there. We can sit and meditate. This temple is very famous in Chennai. On my visit, one Judge was also came here for Blessing.

One of the most powerful temple located in the heart of city. All your prayers will be answered. Bit crowded on Tuesdays and Saturdays. However, there is an exclusive place of meditation and one can feel the divine power by chanting hanuman mantras. All the negative energy are removed and mind is cleansed.

Hello Google users, One of the most pleasant places to visit in Chennai. It really clears my mind whenever I visit this temple. It is my home away from home. The temple priests are very friendly. Saturdays are very crowded. A must visit if you are in and around Chennai Alwarpet area Regards, Deepak.
