VEERA ANJANEYA SWAMY TEMPLE



ThePeople who had visited Madras City, which is presently known, as Chennai must have seen the grand and magnificent Kapaliswarar temple at Mylapore. The imposing Raja Gopuram will remain in our memory. When inside this temple we are far away from the maddening crowd and the hassle of the city. Sri Thirugyana Sampanthar is one of the great saints who had song in praise of Lord Shiva. Sri Thirugyana Sampanthar had song in praise of Lord Kapaliswarar, therefore it is believed that the temple had been in existence for a long time.Bhagawan Anjaneya swamy temple near Sanskrit college at Mylapore, Chennai is one of the oldest Anjaneya temples of Chennai.
