Ranganathaswamy Temple is a 16th-century Vaikhanasa temple in old Bangalore, dedicated to Lord Ranganathaswamy. Its granite pillars and carved details show Vijayanagara workmanship, with traces of Hoysala influence in the stone.
The temple is an active place of worship, so visit respectfully and avoid blocking rituals or festival preparations. Rathotsavam and Vaikuntha Ekadashi are the main times when the temple becomes especially busy.
