The story of Shri Gattiganapati Temple

Shri Gattiganapati Temple is a Hindu temple where Gattiganapati, a form of Ganapati, is worshipped; the only place-specific detail available is its daily opening pattern, with morning and evening hours every day. This temple stands in Mahadevapura, Bengaluru, a suburb and one of the zones of BBMP in Bangalore Urban district in the Indian state of Karnataka.

As a place of worship, its meaning is in the ritual life that happens here rather than in a recorded building history. The name points to Gattiganapati, so this is a shrine for Ganapati devotion, and the practical rhythm matters: on Monday through Sunday it opens from 6:00 AM to 10:00 AM and again from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM. If you are planning a visit, those are the hours to work with.

Around you, Mahadevapura is well connected with Outer Ring Road and Whitefield Road, and Krishnarajapura Railway Station is the nearest station for trains. So this is a very accessible neighbourhood temple, best approached as part of the daily devotional fabric of the area. What you can act on right now is simple: come in the morning or return in the evening, when the temple is open.
