Banashankari Temple

What sets this temple apart is the special prayers conducted by the devotees of Goddess Banashankari Amma on Rahukala, which is considered an inauspicious time for many Hindus.

The temple experiences a significant influx of devotees on Tuesdays, Fridays, and Sundays when it reaches its maximum capacity. Some notable festivals celebrated within the temple premises include the feast day of Goddess Banashankari Amma, observed on September 13, Dusherra, and the temple anniversary, which falls in the Hindu month of Pushya Maasa (corresponding to December to January in the Roman calendar).
