A very old Shiv temple complex renovated , developed and maintained well. more detailed art works at ceiling added to understand divinity . Nandhi in front is lively. Thiripura sundari amman is so beautiful. Chanting of Panniru Thirumurai kept playing to listen always is adding devotees to concentrate in prayer and for a calmness to mind.
