Why devotees come here
Karmanghat Hanuman Temple stands in Karmanghat village, near Santoshnagar in Hyderabad, Telangana. Hanuman is worshipped here as Dhyana Anjaneya, and the temple is very popular with devotees in the city.
Karmanghat Hanuman Temple is dedicated to Hanuman, worshipped here as Dhyana Anjaneya. The complex also houses Rama, Shiva, Saraswati, Durga, Santoshimata, Venugopala and Jagannath. Legend says a Kakatiya king, Prola II, was resting under a tree during a hunt when he heard the name of Rama being chanted. That night Hanuman is said to have appeared to him in a dream and asked him to build a temple.
The temple's age is given in two ways. One account gives about 1198 CE, and another places it in the twelfth century, around 1143. The trust's account says that about 400 years later, Aurangzeb sent armies across the country to expand the Mughal Empire. At this temple, the army could not get close to the compound wall.
The temple is at Karmanghat village in Saroornagar mandal, near Santoshnagar and close to the Nagarjuna Sagar Ring Road. Hanuman Jayanti, Hanuman's birthday, brings devotees in large numbers to offer special pooja.
