Manchalamma Temple

At a distance of 1 Kms from Mantralayam Bus Station, Manchalamma Temple is very close to Sri Raghavendra Brundavan. This deity is another manifestation of Goddess Parvathi. It is a practice for people to worship at this shrine before proceeding to Sri Raghavendra Brindavan.
Legend has it that Raghavendra Swamy requested the land required for the Brudavanam from Manchalamma and hence devotees are first supposed to visit the Manchalamma temple before visiting Sri Raghavendra Swamy.
