Date of visit: 6-Nov-2010
Where (Location):
This temple is located at Chinna Kanchipuram or Vishnu Kanchi.
What is special about this place :
- Ancient and finds mention in Puranas
- One of the 108 Divya Desam
- Vedantha Desikar-Vaishnavait Guru- Sannidhi
- This is where Vedantha Desikar's mother conceived Desikar (an amsam of the bell..!) and the bell at Thiru malai - Thirupathi is said to have vanished from then. Even today, Thirumala temple does not have a bell (hand bell..) to connote this incidence.
What did I like of this place :
- The spiritual significance of this place
- Beautiful Deikar Sannadhi. The Mandapam very good.. The Unique and elegant looking stone grill at the roof of the mandapam..
Rating : Very Good..!
