Dandeeswarar Temple, Hindu temple in Velachery, Chennai, India.
The Dandeeswarar Temple features a five-tier Vimana structure with separate shrines dedicated to Ganapati, Subrahmanya, and numerous other deities within its complex.
The temple construction dates to the Pallava period and underwent substantial reconstruction during the Chola dynasty, displaying architectural elements from both periods.
The temple celebrates major festivals including Chitra Poornima in April-May, Shivrathri in February-March, and Aipasi Annabishekam in October-November.
