Devine place. One of the important temple for lord muruga. The temple is on top of a small hill and need to climb around 60 steps. Main deity is swamynathan swami. On the way to hill we can worship lord Siva as sundareswarar and meenakshi temple. Easily reachable from chrompet railway station and bus stop. There buses to reach the temple. Must visit temple.

A small hill - Climb few steps you could see a Sivan Temple. And to the top, you can see Lord Murugan. An evening would be an amazing time to visit. Cool Breeze,pleasant.Parking for car would be difficult. Bikes could be managed roadside

Kumaran Kundram is almost 40 years old and is located on the hillock in Chrompet, one of the suburban areas in Chennai. At this temple, Lord Murugan is worshipped as the powerful deity as it is similar to the one in Swamimalai town in Thanjavur district in Tamil Nadu.Apart from that, other shrines of Lord Shiva, Sharabeswarar, Ganesh and Navagrahas are also placed inside the temple. Every Friday and Sunday, special prayers are recited at the temple and crowds begin to gather every Sunday from 4:30 pm to 6 pm. The temple also houses a small auditorium where musical programmes and prayer meetings are conducted. And thats not it! You can also enjoy a panoramic city view from the top of the hill.

Temple is located on a small hill top. Only through 100 steps can reach top, but steps are wider and can take rest for elders while going. If you are coming by car, parking might be an issue since there is no dedicated parking area. Come by cab or bike. All gods are there in individual shrine and Murugan is in main shrine on hill top. Within Chennai area, after Kundrathur, this should be the second hilltop Murugan Temple. Like previous reviews, priest is not so good to offer good darshan. Didnt even take a second for aarathi or to offer a small flower from shrine. No crowd when I went there.

A humble temple with an ancient root. This temple pops up suddenly among a busy locality. Maybe the locality developed around the temple. A peaceful place to visit best during morning time. Car parking is a hassle, be ready to scout for a suitable one. Temple is maintained clean and tidy.

A small mountain, lord muruga on the top. Seperate portion for Lord Shiva, Meenakshi,Vinayagar, Navagraha, and Idumban. About 100steps are there, super scenic from the top. Windy, cool and plesant place. Closing about 9PM. Only problem is car parking. You may park your motorcycles around the temple. But difficult to find darling space for car.

Neat and Clean. Maintained properly. You have to park vehicle outside only in main road. No separate parking available. To see Kumaran you have to climb 120 steps. On the way you can see his Dad as well. Way was fitted with Sheets and you will feel Shadows only. Visit him and Enjoy the Life...

One of the very old Murugan Temple in the city with some renovations. This temple is at the top of the hill in Chrompet. Good place for Murugar devotees, Main highlight of the temple is they had written the ஆறுபடை வீடு திருப்புகழ் and குமாரஸ்த்தவம் in the temple wall.ஓம் சரவணபவ

Temple of rock, Kumaran Kundram is a hillrock located at Chromepet, Chennai. It houses an about 40-year-old temple dedicated to the Hindu God murugan. The temple can be reached by road from Chromepet en route to Hasthinapuram. The presiding deity is Sri Swaminathaswamy. The presiding deity in Kumaran Kundram is believed to be equivalent to the one in swamimalai and stands atop the hillock facing north. It can be reached by a flight of about 80 steps.

It is a nice temple on a small hillock. About 150 steps to be climbed but not tough. At midway, Siva sannadhi is there. There is also a sannadhi for Lord Sarabeshwar and every Sunday Rahu Kala pooja is performed between 4.30 and 6 pm. Main deity is called Swaminatha (lord Murugan).Temple is maintained well and really peaceful. There is also daily Annadhanam.

Famous Murugan Temple - Kumara Kundaram in Chrompet, actually its in Chitlapakkam - Hastinapuram main road. We have to climb around 100 steps to view Lord Murugan. In Temple entrance there is Vinayagar, Golden Murugan statue, Amman & Navagra temples. Then we can claim to top & on the way there is Lord Siva temple too. Beautiful temple to get Lord Murugan blessings & relax from city atmosphere.Temple Timings: Morning 6:30 - 10:30 Evening 4:30 - 8:30. Tue, Fri & Sundays Morning 6:30 - 11:30 Karthigai & Special Days 6:00 am to 12:00 noon.

Kumaran kundram temple dedicated to Lord Muruga is a temple atop a small hill in chromepet.One has to tread a hundred steps to reach the hill top.Uphill you get a beautiful panoramic view of the sorrounding areas.Not crowded at all especially on weekdays. Forty steps down on the right side are temples for Lord Sundareshwarar and His consort Kamakshi Amman. There is a small temple for Idumban further down on the left side. Downhill, temples dedicated to Lord Ganesha, Kali Devi and Navagraha are situated. A visit to the temple gives one a great feel and peace.

This temple is on a hillock which is situated amidst residential neighborhood. Wasnt expecting such hillock temple in a crowded neighborhood. Temple has three levels - ground level has Lord Vinayagar, Navagrahas and Lord Murugan (Urchavar). Mid way, there is Lord Shiva and in the top level, there is Lord Muruga. There might be around 100 steps to climb. Temple is quite peaceful and divine experience. I felt bad that I had missed out on this temple so far.
