  • Head quarters of Ayyavazhi religion and one of the most imortant pilgrim centers in Tamil Nadu.
  • THIS SAINTS TEACHINGS TO BE PROBAGATED IN THE MODERN WORLD. see the temple photo in add menu
  • I respectfully disagree with denoting Vaikundar to be a saint. He is an incarnation (avatar) of Narayana as per Akilathirattu Ammanai the holy text.
