Why go

The former refers to Arjuna and the latter refers to his charioteer. Thus, Parthasarathy means "charioteer of Arjuna". It is considered to be the oldest temple in Chennai and its origins date back to the 8th century AD, the reference to which has been made in the Vaishnavite works of the Alwar saints. The existence of the Triplicane village is referred to in the Pallava records and before. The temple derived its name from the pond in front of the temple. It was built by the Pallavas.
