Arulmigu Sri Vedhagiriswarar Temple

Temple has calm environment. It is very old temple. We have to climb about 400 steps to reach the temple atop. Carry a bottle of water. Do remember that after 6PM, the gatekeeper will not allow you to climb the steps, so plan accordingly. Early morning or evening view from top will give amazing view of city, Sangu Theertham, Thripura Sundari Amman temple. Washroom: not available inside temple

An ancient temple with historic significance. The temple is well maintained. It was a great privilege to set foot on this temple. It's located near Chengalpattu and around 30 kms from chennai. The roads connecting to this place is well built and established. People should visit this temple. It will be a great help to your soul and your legs.

Be prepared to climb 565 steps, bare footed, ,(all steps roof are covered well) half of them steep; theres a lenthly way to climb the steps as well. Monkeys are around, but they seem to behave well. there is a public toilet(charge 10 rs/urine, looks high!), but not kept well. The temple is fit for phsically healthy perosns, difficult for young kids, who expect their parents to carry them, and aged. Avoid going on a festival day or holiday, as the roads are narrow, climbing stpes when crowded will be difficult

Nice climb up a flight of steps, around 600 to reach the top. Fully covered from the hot afternoon weather. As we climb get a good view of the town below and the full view of the huge temple below. Temple is known for the birds visiting every day to partake food from the priests hand, but now it has stopped coming. Well decorated idols and we could see the Harathi, they also gave prasad to all visitors.

Super treaking experience with steep steps and after reaching the top there is a view point to view the below Amman temple. Looks similar like T.V.Malai temple. Blessed darshan of Lord Shiva at top of the hill and during returning to base we can see Eagle spot and 2 Shiva lingams represents Rameshwaram and Kashi Shivlings... Later we can see a cave temple maintained by Archeological dept. Good and well maintained place covered with divine. Must visit here once.....

Beautiful and peaceful temple. Divine atmosphere and great view from the top. The climb can be a bit tough for elderly people. Beware of monkeys on the way. Parking is available only on the road side.

Temple is known for the birds visiting every day to partake food from the priests hand, but now it has stopped coming. In memory two life like statues are carved. Friendly priests explained about the temple's history. Well decorated idols and we could see the Harathi, they also gave prasad to all visitors. There is a small cave too in the down route

The temple is wonderful. The views from the top of the temple are so beautiful. But the temple complex was not clean, one could see litters everywhere. Be prepared for encounters with monkeys on the way uphill , generally they are peaceful, but do not tease them and invite trouble. No parking places near the foot hill. One has to use the road side. There is a 2 rupee entry ticket per person( adult). The darshan was good. Elders and people with knee pain have to slowly ascend. It is somewhat steep climb . 540 steps to the top.
