Ardhagiri Anjaneya Swamy Temple History:

 The name Ardhagiri came from an incident related to Treta Yuga, when Lord Hanuman was transporting Dronagiri Mountain (a mountain consisting of herbs for life) during the night, Bharat brother of Lord Ram thought that some mountain was going to hurt; he instantly shot an arrow at Hanuman.Due to its influence, half of the mountain fell to this location, and hence the name of Ardhagiri. It means Half Mountain (Ardhra = half, giri = mountain) in the local language. From then on, people began worshipping Hanuman in the name of Veera Anjaneya Swamy.

Many people, until now, have come from all over the world to catch the medicated water in the reservoir, in addition to the Ardhagiri Anjaneya Swamy Temple. Mountain clay has many healing properties and has the ability to heal many forms of skin problems. The water in the pond comes from various parts of the mountain, affecting several roots of medicinal plants.
