The Panchavati Anjaneya Temple holds great significance for devotees of Lord Hanuman. The name "Panchavati" refers to the five banyan trees (also known as "Vat Vriksh") that surround the temple. According to the Hindu epic Ramayana, Lord Hanuman spent a significant amount of time in the Panchavati region during his search for Sita, the wife of Lord Rama.

The temple features a large idol of Lord Hanuman, which is believed to be one of the tallest idols of Hanuman in a standing posture. The idol is made of a single granite stone and stands at an impressive height. Devotees visit the temple to seek the blessings of Lord Hanuman and to offer prayers and worship.
