Sanjeevi Rayar Temple Kanchipuram

It is 500 year old temple built during vijayanagara period. The temple is located in Ayyargarkulam near kanchipuram. The temple is dedicated to Lord Hanuman. The temple is very Didilipated condition.

This place is 12kms from Kanchi on the Vandavasi route and there is a rare huge temple for Anjaneya and a big tank which goes by the name Iyengar-kulam. Ettur Lakshmikumara Thathacharya built this temple in the 16th century. He was the rajaguru for the Vijayanagara kingdom. Once swami was attacked by bandits and he sang twenty verses on Hanuman who saved him. So he built a temple for Hanuman at the spot he was saved. This is the temple Varadan visits on Chitra Pournami every year. Tirumanjanam takes place inside the sannidhi and then Perumal leaves in kedayam for the next halt-the nadavapi or stepwell.
