The Venkateshwaraswamy temple established by TTD as a prayer hall in the year 1975 in t nagar now stands as a temple, where hoards of devotees take out time to have a lovely darshan of Venkateshwara swamy I have been in Chennai for the last 5 years but have never been to this Temple. This temple is conveniently situated just half kilometre from panagal Park in t nagar the half kilometre walk towards the temple is pleasant given a lot of old trees exist and gives shade to the walkers. There is a shoe stand outside the temple where you can place your slippers and shoes. timings are provided for sarva darshanam 830 am to 11 am. 11:45 to 2 pm. 4 pm to 9 pm with a 45 minutes gap at 6 pm On Tuesdays wednesdays and thursdays the afternoon darshan stops at 1:30 p.m. instead of 2:00 p.m. I have been to the temple on a Saturday there was not too much of rush I had a peaceful darshan There is a replica of bangaru vakili, and swami stands by, flanked to his right is padmavathi Devi, to his left are smaller utsava idol. I believe it is the same structure as thirumala The idol of swami is much smaller when compared to thirumala, but it always feels good to be to swamis temple. As you go around for a parikrama, I noticed that there is a free eye checking facility A counter to book tickets for darshan at tirumala Once the parikrama is complete, there is one book publication shop Most important thing that I noticed is at this Temple you get tirupati laddu, same as the laddu available at thirumala I got my 2020 diary the calendars were not available As I stepped out, I noticed beggers, palmists who would try to strike a conversation saying there is a good news news waiting in next three weeks. If you do not respond they would talk about raghavendra swamy temple and ask contribution for annadanam. If you don't wish to engage with them silently Walk off. Just by the side of the temple there is a shop which arranges for one day trip to tirumala along with the rs 300 darshan. They charge rupees 1800 which is inclusive of breakfast journey darshan and coming back to Chennai Tickets might not be available online, but if you go via this route you are sure to have a darshan with a lag time of three days. I.e if you go on 18 th jan then you can book for 21st jan There are good eateries near the temple notably saravana Bhavan and Sri Krishna sweets

Sri Venkateswara Swamy Temple, T. Nagar (TTD Temple) Visited the temple recently—it's an extraordinary spiritual oasis in the heart of Chennai. Appearance & Deities The main deities here are Lord Venkateswara (Perumal) paired with Alamelu Manga Thayar. The idols are beautifully carved from a single rock and crowned with the traditional jewel-studded kireetam, giving them a majestic and benevolent appearance . You'll also find shrines to Hayagriva, Varaha, Rama, Krishna, Andal, as well as Lakshmi, Sridevi, Bhumidevi, Brahma, and Ramanujacharya—making it a rich spiritual space honoring multiple avatars and saints . Architecture & Layout The temple mirrors the layout of the original Tirumala Venkateswara Temple, featuring a large Bali peetam, a towering Dwaja stambham, and a spacious Thiru Mamani Mandapam guarded by Jaya-Vijaya . Its formal garbha griha dimensions are designed to evoke the sacred experience of Tirumala—even the camera-free darshan area feels thoughtfully aligned. History & Importance Built and maintained by Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD), this temple has become the highest revenue-generating TTD center outside Tirupati, collecting around ₹22.77 crore in 2023–24 . A vital information center for devotees, it offers services like **Tirupati darshan booking and distribution of Tirupati prasadam (laddus)** . Verdict A divine slice of Tirumala in Chennai—this temple is immaculately maintained, spiritually rich, and architecturally impressive. Ideal for devotees seeking Tirupati blessings locally, without having to travel all the way.

Visiting the TTD temple in T. Nagar is a truly divine experience, as the ambiance evokes the same peace and reverence felt at Tirumala. The sight of Lord Venkateswara Swamy, paired with the traditional prasadam laddu, brings a sense of familiarity and devotion. The laddu, identical in taste and tradition to the ones from Tirumala, is a delightful highlight. However, there are areas for improvement in the temple's management. Firstly, maintaining higher standards of hygiene would enhance the spiritual experience for devotees. Additionally, the lack of digital payment options for purchasing prasadam, with only cash being accepted, was disappointing. Paying ₹100 for two laddus without receiving a receipt raised concerns about transparency. I hope the temple management considers enabling UPI payments and providing receipts for all transactions, which would foster trust and convenience for devotees. Despite these minor issues, the temple is a wonderful place to experience the blessings of Lord Venkateswara right here in Chennai.

If you are looking for a spiritual experience in the heart of Chennai, you might want to visit the Sri Venkatachalapathy Temple on Venkatnarayana Road.
