Travel to Gilroy Hanuman Temple @ Mount Madonna Center, CA


This weekend we went to Gilroy Hanuman Temple. Its a must watch temple surrounded by a peace and serene landscape. Wish everyone who ever gets a chance visit this place and may Lord Hanuman's blessings shower on all of you...

Few tips to travel to the temple:

Dont use GPS or look for directions in yahoo or mapquest, bcoz it takes you to a route which is very hilly and not even a concrete road. You will be traversing along a valley, and you cant imagine such a travel when it rains and 2 cars crossing each other in opposite directions.

Route to be travelled:

If you are using a GPS, set the intial destination to well known "Gilroy Gardens" and from there put the temple location. This way you will be travelling along Highway 152 and avoid the valley.

Destination A: Gilroy Gardens: 3050 Hecker Pass Hwy, Gilroy, CA 95020 (Gilroy Gardens)

Destination B
: Hanuman temple: 445 Summit Rd, Watsonville, CA 95076

Route not to be travelled, to avoid travel along the valley (when travelling from Fremont/San Jose, CA:

# Take the TENNANT AVE exit - go 0.4 mi
# Turn Right on TENNANT AVE - go 0.9 mi
# Turn Left on MONTEREY RD/MONTEREY HWY - go 0.5 mi
# Turn Right on WATSONVILLE RD(CR-G8) - go 6.3 mi
# Turn Right on REDWOOD RETREAT RD - go 3.2 mi
