Dedicated to the Hindu God, the Anajaneyaswamy temple inspires awe and reverence amongst the devotees who visit here. There is an interesting story behind this temple. It is believed that a big heap of Ragi (a food grain) turned out to become a stone, hence the name “Ragigudda”.   After this, Lord Brahma, Vishnu, Maheshwara who visited the place, wished to stay here permanently changing themselves into 3 big stones pillars.  It was in 1969 that the temple was constructed around the stone pillars and was opened for public. The centre of attraction of this temple is the festival of “Sri Hanumajjayanthi” which is celebrated for 12 days.  Special poojas, abhishekasm, homas are the distinct feature of these 12 days with delectable Mahaprasada being served to devotees. Do pay a visit over here for a spiritual indulgence.
