Sri Ganesar Temple (Kottu Malai Ganesar Temple) - aka Pudu Pillaiyar Temple


Kotta Malai Pillaiyar Temple
13 Jalan Pudu LamaKuala Lumpur, Malaysia 50200
Tel: +60 3 2222 4242
Opens - 8am to 6 pm daily
It is quite literally an institution in Kuala Lumpur. It located pretty close to the the main bus station at Puduraya KL. Its a small temple really but is renowned for its spiritual power in both Singapore and Malaysia. I have been there couple of times :).
The history of the foundation of the temple goes back to 1897, when an Indian gardener started a prayer session in the backyard of a British official's residence. Wagner, the official, threatened to destroy Ganeshar's image and days later, his hands and legs became paralysed. The gardener had a dream in which Lord Ganesha instructed him to smear vibuthi (ashes) onto Wagner's legs and hands. Wagner soon recovered. After this incident, Wagner initiated the building of a proper temple and provided the necessary funds. Today, Sri Ganesar Temple is a household name for almost every Malaysian Hindu.

I love Kottumalai Pillayar Temple so much...This temple is a great temple, so powerful and so blissful..My beloved Court Hill Pillayar is always there to guide and bless you.

When i was studying abroad, i bring along a small statue of Pillayar.When i was getting down from my hostel stairs one day, i saw a colorful photo on the corner of the hostel corridor.When i get near, i saw a beautiful Kottu Malai Pillayar photo.That time, i didnt know where exactly is this temple eventough it stated at Pudu, KL.I finished my studies and was offered a job in KL.I started noticing a temple behind my office, and when i ask people around, they stated it is Kottumalai Pillayar Temple. I was so stunned and speechless. I felt i am very blessed with Pillayar Pa presence and protection with me always...

God Pillayar is humble, caring, cute God that is always adored by me and other devotees in the world....

Om Shri Ganeshaya Namaha....
