Sculpture Glory

The front of sivagami amman shrine is the best example of sculpture.The manmathan and rathi are attracted the viewers.Around the rathi image we can see the four musical pillars when we are knock the pillars it's produced fine music.And than we can hear the glass knock sound will produced from panel of stone pillar.And than we can see the chain made by stone.The ramayana says rama killed vaali without known him. the sculptor explain this stage super if we stand in front of the rama we can see the valli image, but if we stand in front of the vaali image we cann't see the rama image..The most beautiful piece of art in the temple lies in the wooden kalyanamedaiin the mandapa. It has been made so skilfully that the joints are not visible at all.The medai contains numerous multi-coloured images. a sri chakaram is engraved on the panel of pillar in the kalyan mandpa.There is no inner prakara for both the shrines.On the south west corner of the common prakara of the shrines is vinayaga who islocally called NINATHATHI MUDIKKUM VINAYAGAR .
