Overview
The Hanuman Temple in Connaught Place is one of the oldest and most famous temples in Delhi. This temple is dedicated to Lord Hanuman and is thronged by devotees throughout the day.
It is believed that this place is associated with the Mahabharata period. Special pujas and homas will be held on Saturdays and Sundays.
The Hanuman temple in Connaught Place is a major religious site in Delhi, where thousands of devotees visit daily to pay obeisance to Lord Hanuman.
Use the temple as a focused devotional stop within a Connaught Place visit. Decide whether to join worship or make a brief respectful visit, then allow time for the queue and shoe collection. Shop and meal plans can wait until afterwards; following a tight shopping schedule through a crowded entrance makes the visit harder for everyone.
- Best time: Tuesday and Saturday for special prayers
- Time needed: 30 minutes - 1 hour
- Agree on a meeting point: Pick a visible place outside the main movement of worshippers before separating. Keep children close and protect phones and bags in queues without obstructing access.
- Choose the onward route: For a central Delhi afternoon, choose either the surrounding shopping area or another place of worship as your next stop. Check the exact Metro entrance or cab pickup instead of navigating only by the Connaught Place name.
