The story of Shri Gattiganapati Temple

Shri Gattiganapati Temple is a place of worship in Mahadevapura, and the practical thing to know is that it opens every day in the morning from 6:00 to 10:00 AM and again in the evening from 6:00 to 8:00 PM.

The temple itself is the only subject named here, so I can’t give you a documented building history for this exact shrine. What I can place for you is its setting: Mahadevapura is a suburb and one of the zones of BBMP in Bangalore Urban district in the Indian state of Karnataka. It was a city municipal council, and today it is well connected with Outer Ring Road, Whitefield Road and Krishnarajapura Railway Station, the nearest station to board trains.

The area around you is developing quickly, with high growth potential in residential development, and leading schools, shopping malls and showrooms have come up here. That makes the temple part of a busy, changing urban neighbourhood rather than an isolated old village shrine.

If you are planning a visit, the easiest window is early morning or evening, when the temple is open and the rest of Mahadevapura’s traffic is usually easier to manage.
