Sri SathyaNarayana Perumal Temple / ஸ்ரீ சத்யநாராயண பெருமாள் கோயில் , West Mambalam, Chennai, Tamil Nadu.

23^rd October 2017.

This temple, Ayodhya Mandapam and Murugashramam are very close to each other in West Mambalam. During my visit, abhisheka was in progress with the Utsavars. This temple is very much similar to the one at Nanganallur, but confined in a small space.

Moolavar : Sri Sathyanarayana

Some of the important features of this temple are…

The temple is facing North with a three-tier Rajagopuram & 5 kalasas on the top. The Rajagopuram is simple without many stucco images, except for Dwarapalakas and Vimana thangis.

Balipeedam, Dwajasthambam, and Garudalwar are opposite Sri Sathyanarayana sannidhi. Sannadhis also for Hanuman, Lakshmi Narasimhar, Chakrathalwar, Kothandaramar, Andal, and Stucco images of Thirupathi Venkatachalapathy.
