About This Temple
Nestled right off the Chennai-Bangalore highway, the Mogili Eswara Temple is an ancient Shaivite shrine famous for its perennially flowing water source. Fresh, cold water trickles directly from the feet of the sacred Nandi bull idol inside the courtyard. Remarkably, this natural stream flows year-round and has never dried up—even during the harshest summers.
