About this Place
Chandra Choodeswarar Temple, dedicated to Lord Shiva in his form as Chandra Choodeswarar (the one adorned by the moon), is one of the prominent Hindu temples in Hosur, a rapidly growing city in the Krishnagiri district of Tamil Nadu.
The presiding deity, Lord Chandra Choodeswarar, is worshipped alongside Goddess Parvati, and the temple draws devotees from Hosur, Bengaluru, and surrounding regions. The temple follows the Shaiva Agama traditions and conducts daily rituals including Thiruvanandal, Kalasanthi, and Arthajama Puja. Special festivals such as Maha Shivaratri, Karthigai Deepam, and Panguni Uthiram are celebrated with grand processions and large congregations of pilgrims.
The temple's gopuram and sanctum reflect classic South Indian temple architecture, offering a tranquil spiritual atmosphere amid Hosur's urban growth. It serves as both a religious landmark and a cultural hub for the local Tamil community.
