Beautiful Shiva Temple who's called as Kediliappar. Well maintained temple. Very neat and clean. You will have a divinely effect. Enough car parking. Easy to find this temple.
A big Shiva temple with plenty of sculptures. Nataraja vigraham is unique one. Anju vattathu amman shrine is most popular.
It was a great place. The temple is huge and has a great pond. There are small hotels near by which are not so expensive but tastes amazing
In this temple Bhagvan Shiva is in Dancing posture seen, with Ten hands and Parvathi Nataraj is here, instead of resting, right leg on muyalagam resting on his left leg at Sri Kedialappar temple Kelivalur in the district Nagapattnam Tamil Nadu. Nataraja unique dance form by lord Shiva. This style of statue is observed that the big bang theory was straight connected with this dance action, when lord started dancing the space broken in billion of pieces and all the stars, planets, galaxies created by the big bang.
A very different kind of temple with moolavar at mada kovil build by chola king. Don't miss to read the board there explaining the significance and mahimai of various gods in this temple, especially about Lord kediliappar, goddess panchavattahamman and Lord kuberar. Pray to Lord kuberar if you want some of his navanithi. The temple staff and archagars here are verykind. When we went to this temple, a yagan was being conducted at anjuvattathamman sannathi by some devottess.
