Hello Friends,
Visiting ancient temples, getting to know the history of the temple and marveling at the architecture is a joy indeed. Chennai, if you carefully explore has its own set of ancient temples hidden away here and there. One such is the Marundeeswarar temple at the Thiruvanmiyur – ECR Road. The temple is celebrating the Panguni Brahmotsavam from March 31st to the 12th of April and wears a festive look.
The temple is a delight to visit, as it is large, spacious with ample room to walk all around the temple. It is clean and well-kept with cow shed towards the back entrance with a set of calves and cows looking so out to you eagerly.
The main deity is Lord Shiva – Shri. Marundheeshwar is considered to cure any disease. And people flock this temple and pray to Lord Shiva to cure their illnesses.
