Very divine place.When Lord Hanuman was transporting Sanjeevani Parvath some part of it fell at this place, hence the name Ardhagiri came . There are some many monkeys around this temple , so be careful with your valuable things. There is a small pond Located ,besides this temple. As it is believed that the water, which is present in this pond can cure many types of skin problems . (This water comes from the different places of mountains ,touching many roots of various medicinal plantsπ± π±). For Archana seva they will charge 5/- per person.
Very peaceful location.You have to go through Ghat road, need to pay at the entrance.You can find lot of monkeys, be careful if you are planning to carry food items. You can also enjoy feeding them.Shopping is just ok not that great.You can find good amount of parking space. Toilets are also available.
Divine and calm place. Shops are closed when we went. Better to bring enough water and food. There is a small Shiva temple, need to climb few hundred steps for it.
Very powerful place and water is used for curing diseases also.we are very Happy after Dharshan.
Services from Temple Staff is not Good,but Lord Anjaneya Swamys Dharshanam is Nice,A Must Visiting Place before starting journey to Tirumala Hills,Jai Bhajaranga Bhali,Vayuputra Hanuman ki Jai,πππππ
Its a very beautiful temple of lord Anjaneya which is constructed on the top of the hill . Definitely will get peace of mind once we visit the temple . Every month on the day of pournami there will be a special pooja conducted here and most of the piligrims will participate in this pooja and stays sleepless by praying the god and participating in special cultural programmes at the temple whole night .

Good but try to go early before light fails becauseThere wont be much human movement if you are travelling single and it closes by 7 pm
Nice place to visit which is on the way to tirupathi and kanipakam.
Well maintained temple...Parking facilities available....
When ever you visit Kanipakam Temple, do not miss to visit Ardhagiri Sri Veeranjaneya Temple, 14KM away from Kanipakam.
Nice temple ....
Ardhagiri is a hill where Hanuman temple is located. The hill is situated in Aragonda village of Chittoor district in the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh.....Every thing is awesome but the Entry ticket for car is 100 rupees its too much ....
U feel very blessed ....The temple is not quite big...but is maintained very well.....It is situated on top of a hill......A pucca road is constructed for easy reach....This temple has great history and value behind...Do visit the pushkarini.....
Holy Hanuman temple with amazing nature all around...

Its very Pleassant place and there is story also there for ardhagiri ..And more ever its home village for Appolo hospitals
Historic and famous Hindu temple u must visit
Lovedddd ittt..super place.have parking area.
Good location to visit for getting holy water. Has good ambiance. The trust plans to fetch as much money as possible in order to allow inside the temple for darshan, no matter what time of morning you visit. Had to pay 500 for Aaku seva to Anjaneya swami. Look yourself for the pictures
The first thing I like there was the Atmosphere...You Have to Travel almost a Kilometer to the Top of the Mountain where the Temple is Situated in almost in 70Β° angle Road... You can Find the Excellent view of the nearby villages and mountains from the top of the mountain which looks like kerala or Goa... Dont miss to visit this place when you visit Kanipakamβ€οΈ
It is good to visit,and it is pleasant to be there for long time also
Anjeneya hill. Nice place
Aragonda place is situated 15km from chittoor cross roads, connectivity is best from chittoor, frequent buses are available, from kanipakam u catch bus upto chittoor crosss road junction 5rs, from there share autos are available to aragonda 20rs. Aragonda anjaneya swamy temple is located on top of mountain 3km from aragonda place, nice road is avaialable and surroundings are nice and awesome.betel leaves are available outside the temple for offering to swamy and for seva. Betel available are very long and best in quality. Good amount of parking available, no rooms are available on the mountainonly one arya vysa satram is available on mountain.
βArdhagiri Veeranjaneya Swamy temple is 17 kms from kaanipakam.There are no direct buses from kaanipakam but from chittoor you can find a few of RTC buses till aragonda.But, from aragonda to reach temple on hill, you have to wait till any share autos pick you up.From kaanipakam you can hire a omni vehicle with 100rs per person to and fro to temple. Now about temple, which is very old and famous for water in pond Koneru which cures illhealth is strongly believed.Temple is in pleasant environment.Though there is an improvement wrt awarenes about the temple can be made, developement seems impressive.Pourinma day is considered to be auspicious and special puja is performed. You can plan to cover this temple and kaanipakam in a day.
Temple is good.. but the hill over the temple and the scenery from there is awesome and mind peacing one π
Very Powerful and Peaceful place with cool nature
Good place to visit, Pleasant to come.
Ardhagiri Sri Veeranjaneya Swamy temple is situated in Aragonda village, Chittoor district of Andhra Pradesh and also dedicated to Lord Hanuman. The Sri Veeranjaneya Swamy temple was believed to be built in the 12th century by Nolamba dynasty. Ardhagiri Sri Veeranjaneya Swamy temple is closely associated to Ramayana, one of the great epics of India. It is said that during Tretayuga, the second Yuga among the four yugas which are described as the ages of mankind, Lord Hanuman bought Sanjeevani Parvatham, a powerful life-restoring herb, to save the life of Lord Lakshmanan when he fell unconscious during a war.And it was believed that on Lord Hanumanβs journey by lifting the entire mountain as he was unable to find the Sanjeevani Parvatham herb, half of the mountain fell down at a particular place which is named as Ardhagiri, where βArdhaβ refers to the meaning βHalfβ and βgiriβ refers to the meaning βMountainβ in Telugu language. The Ardhagiri Sri Veeranjaneya Swamy temple holds the sacred Sanjeevaraya Pushkarini (pond or temple tank) which contains the holy theertham which never gets dried up in any situationAnd drinking the holy water from Sanjeevaraya Pushkarini is believed to cure all sorts of diseases. The presiding deity of this temple is Lord Anjaneya (Hanuman), who is called by the name Ardhagiri Sri Veeranjaneya Swamy. And it is said that the rays of the sun passes through the sanctum and fall on the feet of Lord Anjaneya and finally the sun rays disappears when it reaches beyond the head region of Lord Anjaneya.

Awesome place to visit. People who love adventures on the hills should come and visit this place, People love this place because of the caves it has and the beautiful scenes we can see and enjoy from here
Famous during full moon day...You will really realize the power of the HanumanBe aware of transport.
Many devotees will visit on full moon(pournami) day. Bus facility is available from bangarupalyam, chittoor to artdhagiri by APSRTC every 5 to10 mns. Facilities are very worst there is no water for restroom for bothing also. Maintainance is very worst.
This temple is very pleasant. Situated on top of the mountain, 11 kms from Kanipakam. Even though the facilities are less, it still maintained well enough. But it would be good if thereβre some restroom facilities...
My one of my favourite place ..must visit when visiting kanipakam

This temple is connected with the Sanjeevani hill which Hanuman brings from Himalaya to help Laxman cure because of the Shakti astra from Ravana as part of Ram-Ravan war in Ramayana.Part of Sanjeevani hill is fallen which is Ardhagiri hill and also it contains perennial stream of water formed in the hill.
