**Quick answer:** Shree Khatu Shyam Mandir Chandigarh Dhaam is at Back-Side Community
Center, near Makhan Majra Light, Sunder Nagar Market, Chandigarh 160101 (Google 
Maps plus code MRP8+RG). Its Google Maps listing shows it open every day from **
4 AM to 12 PM and 4 PM to 9:30 PM**, with phone 098787 30946 and a wheelchair-accessible
entrance. People search for it as Sector 32 or Sector 29, but Google Maps has no
separate Khatu Shyam temple in either sector: those searches lead to this temple.
We could not find a published aarti schedule, so call before a festival-day visit.

## Where the temple is

Google Maps gives the address as Back-Side Community Center, Near Makhan Majra Light,
Sunder Nagar Market, Chandigarh, 160101, and the plus code as MRP8+RG. The address
does not name a sector. Searchers often type Sector 32 or Sector 29; a Google Maps
search for Khatu Shyam Mandir in either of those sectors returns this same listing
and no other Khatu Shyam temple. The simplest way to find it is to type _Shree Khatu
Shyam Mandir Chandigarh Dhaam_ into Maps.

If you searched for “Khatu Shyam Mandir Panchkula”: this page is about the Chandigarh
temple above. There is also a separate, smaller **Khatu Shyam Mandir in nearby Pinjore,
Haryana** (Google Maps: 4.8 stars, plus code QWX8+8W8, no phone listed) — a different
temple, not covered on this page. Check which one you mean before you go.

Khatu Shyam Mandir Chandigarh: Address, Timings and Ekadashi Dates 2

## Timings

| Day | Darshan hours on the Google Maps listing | 
| Monday to Sunday | 4 AM to 12 PM, then 4 PM to 9:30 PM |

These are the hours the temple’s Maps listing shows; the temple has no website that
we could find, so we cannot say whether hours change with the season or on festival
days. Aarti times are not published. Ring 098787 30946 before a very early or late
visit.

Do not assume this temple follows the schedule of the original Khatu Shyam temple
in Rajasthan. The website that Wikipedia lists for that temple, khatu-shyam.in, 
publishes different times for it: in winter 5:30 AM to 1 PM and 4:30 to 9 PM, and
in summer 4:30 AM to 12:30 PM and 4 to 10 PM.

## Ekadashi dates in Chandigarh

The Khatu temple’s website keeps an Ekadashi calendar for devotees, so we list the
dates here. Whether the Chandigarh temple holds anything special on these days is
not published, so ask on 098787 30946. Drik Panchang calculates these dates for 
Chandigarh:

| Date | Ekadashi | 
| Tuesday, 22 September 2026 | Parsva Ekadashi | 
| Tuesday, 6 October 2026 | Indira Ekadashi | 
| Thursday, 22 October 2026 | Papankusha Ekadashi | 
| Thursday, 5 November 2026 | Rama Ekadashi | 
| Friday, 20 November 2026 | Devutthana Ekadashi (Saturday, 21 November on the Vaishnava rule) | 
| Friday, 4 December 2026 | Utpanna Ekadashi | 
| Sunday, 20 December 2026 | Mokshada Ekadashi | 
| Thursday, 18 March 2027 | Amalaki Ekadashi, the Phalguna Shukla Ekadashi |

The Falgun Mela at Khatu is held in the Hindu month of Falgun, February to March,
according to Wikipedia, which says lakhs of devotees join a procession carrying 
the Nishan, a sacred triangular flag. Phalguna Shukla Ekadashi falls on 18 March
2027; confirm the mela days with the Khatu temple.

### Shyam Baba’s birthday (Janmotsav) in 2026

The Khatu temple’s website says Shri Khatu Shyam Ji’s birthday, the Janmotsav, is
celebrated every year on Dev Uthani Ekadashi, the Ekadashi of the bright half of
Kartik. In 2026 that is **Friday, 20 November** (Saturday, 21 November on the Vaishnava
rule). At Khatu it is the second-biggest mela of the year after the Falgun Mela,
with night-long bhajans and cakes offered to Baba Shyam. The Chandigarh temple has
not published its own programme, so ring 098787 30946 to ask about the kirtan timings.

## Who Khatu Shyam Ji is

Wikipedia says Khatu Shyam Ji is believed to be Barbareek, the grandson of Bhima
and son of Ghatotkacha. The main temple is at Khatoo in Sikar district, Rajasthan;
Wikipedia says it was originally built in 1027 CE by Roop Singh Chauhan, and that
the present building uses white Makrana marble. The account on the Khatu website
says Barbarik would have fought for whichever side was losing, so Krishna asked 
for his head before the Mahabharata war, and that the head was later found at Khatu
when villagers dug the ground where a cow’s milk had flowed. Tellings differ, so
treat this as the tradition and not as history.

## Other Khatu Shyam temples near Chandigarh

Google Maps also lists a Khatu Shyam temple at Pinjore (Khatu Shayam Mandir pinjor,
plus code QWX8+8W8, Pinjore, Haryana 134102, open 4 AM to 9 PM every day) and Shree
Sanatan Dharam Khatu Shyam Ji Mandir Baltana (plus code MRCJ+CJH, Baltana, Zirakpur,
Mohali district, Punjab 140604). We have not visited or verified either, so confirm
before you travel.
