In the heart of Bengaluru, the Chokkanathaswamy Temple stands as a testament to the city's past, built in the 10th century by the Cholas and later renovated by the Hoysalas and Vijayanagara emperors. Dedicated to Chokkanathaswamy, a form of Lord Vishnu, the name "Chokkanathaswamy" combines "Chokka," meaning "beautiful" in Telugu, and "Nathaswamy," meaning "Lord" or "Master".
The temple also houses two of Lord Vishnu's consorts, Sridevi and Bhudevi. The temple is adorned with Tamil inscriptions narrating stories of devotees like Alagiyar and Talaikkattu, who donated lands in the 13th century.
Visitors flock to seek blessings from Chokkanathaswamy and immerse themselves in the temple's peaceful ambiance, surrounded by a blend of Chola, Hoysala, Vijayanagara, and Dravidian architectural styles. This ancient temple remains a revered site for worship and spiritual growth, resonating with the prayers of devotees at dawn and dusk.
