Old temple in Chennai. Temple main sanctum is like other North Tamilnadu temples like the back side of Elephant. One of the temples in Chennai received hymn (Paadal Petra Sthalam) in Chennai. Pigeons are many in corridor and nice fell to see those flying around us. Guru Sthalam also. Arunagirinathar has sung one hymn in this temple, it is sculptured in the same God Murugan shrine. and we can have too close darshan of God Murugan. Nice place to go with your kids.

Find the evening is a delight to watch, and give them food like Grams, thinai they will love it for sure.

Amazing selfie point in avadi new initative

A beautiful Shiva Temple which is surprisingly well maintained, neat, clean and organised. Abundant car and 2 wheeler parking around the temple. The approach from padi main road to the temple is narrow. Nice architecture (Cholas) and the temple is surely many 1000s of years old.. I wonder if many know that such a historic temple is with in Chennai City. Not to miss this Temple.

Nice, spacious temple comprising all the main deities. Approach road is full of potholes, and needs immediate attention from authorities.

Most famous and very old temple. Padi, Thiruvalidhayam

Famous Siva temple situated in the heart of city. It is also one of gurusthalam. Just a few metres from the main road. You can see hundreds of pigeons having their food inside the temple.
