Introduction

Valuthur is located on the Kumbakonam-Thanjai road beyond Rajagiri. The temple is on the right-hand side near the bus stop. The ruined oldest Shiva temple on the main road. The old mother lies on the torn mat, it means that the son is negligent. Vaithoor, also known as Valuthur, is one of the towns inhabited by the Pallavas. To the east is the beautiful main tower, formerly the small Nandavana Stadium. A brick splinter made entirely of brick. The Lord is facing east and the Goddness is facing south, and in front of them are two Nandis. Look at the portal gate of Ganesha and you will understand how much work has been poured in here. Beautiful Aadal Ganesha. The next shrine is dedicated to Lord Murugan Valli and the next shrine is dedicated to Goddess Jashta. It is not known who a goddess is. A linga is placed at the place of Ganesha in the sanctum sanctorum. Next is the south-facing Linkodpower, in the northern line of the Moon. Kailasanathar, a thousand years old. The green flag has started flying everywhere on the Kumbakonam- Thanjai road. The abbeys are empty, and only a few temples remain. Visit the shrines of the area in large numbers to give hope to the Hindus living nearby. # “With the kind permission of Sri Kadambur K. Vijayan, these are extracted from his posts”.
