Ghanteshwar Temple Mumbai
About Ghanteshwar Temple Mumbai
Located in Khar West, Mumbai, Ghanteshwar Hanuman Temple houses a self-manifested idol of Hanuman. The temple earned its distinctive name from the practice of devotees offering brass bells to the deity after their prayers are answered. Originally known as Shri Hanuman Temple, the accumulation of countless bells over the years led to its renaming as Ghanteshwar (literally 'Lord of Bells'). The temple is managed by Shri Ghanteshwar Hanuman Jayanti Utsav Mandal and serves as a significant pilgrimage site, particularly popular on Tuesdays and Saturdays when large numbers of devotees visit for darshan.
