temple, Shiva temple
The temple with beautiful sculptures is situated in a very beautiful and fertile location. Though a Shiva Temple, importance is for Ambal. Ambal here is really beautiful, as the name signifies and is famous for giving boon to all people; specially for marriage and Child birth. Kanchi Paramacharya, after visiting this temple for the first time, did not feel like going away and stayed there for 3 days. At the entrance to Shiva there are carvings of Patanchali on the right side and Vyaghrapathar on the left.
Another speciality is the Bilva tree with Neem tree. Usually we see only neem tree with banyan tree. Here it is twined with Bilva tree. Bilva tree represents Shiva and Neem tree Parvathi/Ambal. Here the Bilva tree is branched into three like a Trishul, just at a height of about 10 feet from the ground. The branch of the neem tree is embracing the Trishul region. It reminds us of Parvati embracing Shiva.
This is a hidden treasure trove for heritage and sculpture lovers.
