Prasanna Venkatesa Perumal Temple, Saidapet, Hindu temple in Saidapet, Chennai, India

The temple complex contains a sanctum sanctorum where Sri Prasanna Venkata Narasimha stands with his consorts Sridevi and Bhudevi facing eastward.

The temple's construction took place in the 12th century during the Vijayanagara Empire period, with certain architectural elements dating back over 1000 years.

The Balija Chetty community built this temple, demonstrating their connection to Vijayanagara rulers Krishnadeva Raya and Achyuta Raya through architectural elements.

The temple maintains regular hours from early morning to evening and features a 36-foot wooden chariot used during annual festival processions.

The Ramanuja Vijaya Vilasam hall, completed in 1901 and now known as Ramanuja Koodam, serves as a gathering space within the temple grounds.
