I saw this beautiful but discarded temple at Kottaiyur in the outskirts of Karaikudi. A new temple had been built nearby and hence this old one's being neglected. Its called the 'Sorketan Temple' (Sol-ketan)...Like most temples, this too has lot of superstitious stories running...Rumor has it that its not good for pregnant women to visit this temple and its not good to visit this temple at certain times of the day.
namma oorla tourism innum konjam develop pannalaam, ithey US ah irundha itha apdiye historical,heritage,world's one of the oldest temples nu semaya market panni kootam kooda vechu irupaanga...mathapai indha rumors ellam just to abandon this temple...:-)

ReplyDeleteVery beautiful photographs. One can just sit there peacefully admiring the architecture..no crowd and lines around the temple..must make time to visit this area some time.(I see many temples around that area from your blog)
