Anjaneyar Temple
The huge idol of Lord Hanuman, carved out of a single granite stone, without any breakpoint or streamline, is the main attraction of the Nanganallur Anjaneyar temple. The imposing idol stands 322 feet tall. It is black in hue and towers over the other shrines in the temple complex. In height, It ranks only second to the idol of Hanuman at Panchavati (near Puducherry) in terms of height.
The temple tower of the deity is also very high, almost 90 feet. The sanctum sanctorum is connected to the other shrines in the complex via corridors. There is a shrine for Sri Rama, Lakshmana, and Sita. Rama is always connected with Hanuman, and his presence is a given in any temple for Hanuman. Rama is depicted as the ruler and protector here; in the form, that Hanuman worships and respects. Rama carries a bow and is called Kothanda Rama. To acknowledge the fact that Hanuman was present in the Mahabharata as well, a shrine for Lord Krishna was also built. Krishna's two consorts, Rukmini and Satyabhama, can also be seen alongside him. To save Arjuna's chariot from harm, during the Kurukshetra war, Hanuman graced the chariot's flag, according to the Mahabharata.
There are two smaller shrines in the north-east part of the temple. One is for Lord Ganesha, and to its left, on another platform, is one for Naga or the snake god. Saint Raghavendra is also present, facing Krishna's shrine. There is a large hall or mandapam for devotees to stand and pray to the deity. It can accommodate a lot of people.
One of the major power spots. The Idol is a 32 feet Viswaroopa Adhivyadhihara Sri Bhaktha Anjaneyaswami. The temple also has a sanctum of Lord Rama and Lord Krishna separately.
Modelled out of single rock, this Hanuman stands enormous in his abode. The deity could be seen without even entering inside because of his majestic height of 32 feet. This temple is serene and gives a lot of positivity. Must visit place in Chennai for those meticulously in need of peace in life.
This temple is dedicated to Lord Hanuman. The deity is about 35 feet height. The deity can be seen from the road itself because of it's height. There will be huge crowd on Saturdays, Sundays and all auspicious days. People believe that if a person visits regularly for nine continuous days and Saturdays, he or she will achieve.
Such a pleasant darshan. I visited along with my family. We visited on Saturday Evening and surprisingly it was less crowd and we had a wonderful darshan.
Great idol with lot of attraction on it. It will give you a positive vibrant which makes you to stay inside the temples for few mins.
There are several darshan, especially for Vada Malai you have pre-book it. I heard the slot are full for next 2-3 months. You can find Ganapathy and Perumal along with Raghavendra idol also.
Parking is the huge concern. Two wheelers somehow can find a place, but it's Very hard to find a place for Car and larger vehicle.
You can shops near, Flowers / Devotional Fancy items. Also there's a Government (Paid) Restroom, 20-30 meters from temple, which is good.
People who feel like can't visit Namakkal Anjaneyar, you can visit this temple.
You will also get Prasadam on the exit for Free.
There are too many bulls roaming in the Street so please be very careful coz they looks huge and strong.

What a divine experience! Must visit temple if you are anywhere near Nanganallur. You can travel all the way from anywhere in Chennai if you are an Anjaneya bhakt! The huge 32 feet Anjaneya idol inspires both awe and reverence. The temple is calm and serene on weekday mornings. There are sannidhis for Kodhanda Rama, Krishna and Vinayaka.
Note: The temple is on a relatively narrow street with no parking so if you go by car, park by the roadside on any of the streets surrounding the temple and walk to the temple.
The temple used to be Pristine clean until few years back, with round the clock cleaning done.
Today I see lack of that.
Also the Priest did half hearted SwarnaPushpam Archanai, this was in the morning like 10 on a Sunday.
