"I have been visiting the Mulki Sundar Ram Shetty Ayyappa Swamy Temple in Arekere for many many years and truly felt a divine experience. 🙏 The temple is very peaceful, well-maintained, and gives a sense of calm the moment you step inside. The Ayyappa Swamy idol is beautifully adorned and the ambience is filled with positivity. The poojas are performed with great devotion and the temple management takes good care of cleanliness and discipline. A perfect place to sit quietly, pray, and feel connected to spirituality in the middle of the city. Definitely a must-visit for devotees of Lord Ayyappa. 🌺"

"Chair's are not always available for those who have varicose vein related like standing problems. Otherwise, this place is good for offering prayers. Normally this Temple is open from 5:30 am to 10:30 am and 4:30 pm to 8:30 pm. Previously, this temple had just one deity - Swamy Iyyappa! Behind the main deity, I see Sri. Anjaneya, to his left Sri. Ganesha, to his left Sri. Subramanya, to his left Sri. Amma. Now they have constructed a Sri. Shiva Lingam in-between Sri. Navagraham and Arali-katte/Arasa Maram! A seperate concrete room is recommended. As of now there is Tin sheet room which could absorb outside weather and render the attendants in a most uncomfortable situation!"

"The temple is beautiful. The Namboodiri there is so racist I would say! I have been to this temple manier times, even if I have given Archana receipts I was never given the Prasadam back. instead If a fair person comes just after me, He would give Prasadam. I found it very offensive and eventually impacting the purpose of visiting temple since I had to leave the temple with a low feeling of being neglected of my body colour."
