Temple Specialty

  • Thala Virutcham

    Although there are various trees as trees in the temples, the banyan tree is the most suitable for the banyan lord who sits under the vellum tree. Above all, this Parakalakottai called Thanthila is the only temple where the Banyan tree is the main tree and it is also the Talamurthi.

  • Prayer

    It is special that the temple is not open during the day and is open only at night on all Mondays. There is no goddess here. Shiva appears in the form of a Vellala tree. On Makara Sankranti Thai Pongal only one day, from early morning to 7 pm, the walk is open throughout the day. The highlight of the day is the sunlight falling on Swamis mane
