Location&Direction:This Temple is located 9 Kilometres from Dindukal.As there is no lodging facility at this place, it's better to stay at Dindukal and plan to visit this place.
Legend says that Thirumalirunzholai Nambi azhagar perumal (madurai kallazhagar) himself came to this place to help saint Mandugar and Killed demon Thaalasuran. As Madurai kallazhagar himself poises as SoundaraRajaPerumal,Almost all the festivals celebrated at kallazhagar temple is being celebrated here as well.Famous one being Lord soundararaja perumal goes through kudaga River at Chitra Pournami for Godess Annai Abhirami. This temple was renovated by Achutha Devar later by konirama Devar.
I have visited this temple a couple of times. My sister lives in Dindigul and we all made to this place two-three times earlier
(appa...first time Natarajan Prakash has posted a temple which I know :) - ithula enna peruma, get out - thengai seenivasan in Thillu mullu )
One of the beutiful temple I have visited. The munmandapam has around 12 (14?) amazing sculptures in each of the pillars. Each is around 8-10 feet tall and very lively and intricate sculptures.
What I feel bad is, all the time I went there, I reached there around 5 in the evening and before I can get satisfied seeing these beauties, it will become dark. worth a visit.
Yes, It is indeed a very beautiful temple.When I first recorded the podcast, it came out for more than 10 minutes.Then I had to edit a lot to make it crisp,ended up in 5 minutes. Very lively atmosphere ,gives peace to heart.Hope you would have heard my podcast.hope you like it as well
