madukkarai sellandiamman


This temple is considered to be built 2500 yrs ago by all the 3 kings of the Chera, Chola and Pandya Kingdoms. She is called the Madukkarai Chellandiyamman. The king of the Chola Kingdom, prayed to the Goddess here to make the Kingdom fertile. So the Goddess here, has her head tilted to the north east. She is a special towards wedding problem, child birth issues, property issues. The present construction of the temple is not ancient. We took a circumambulation of the temple and came out.
