Temple

[edit]

2km from Somarasampettai is a temple connected with the Kumara Vayalur Murugan temple that is a monument of Sundara Chola and Adithya II periods.

Balasubramaniar is presented with a face and four hands along with Devayani in standing posture. Idols have been discovered in various places inside the temple.[1] At one location Saneeswaran faces Murugan. In another the Shiva statue named Agastheeswarar is tilted, allegedly because Lord Shiva, while accepting a gift from a handicapped woman (as a token of love), had to bend sideways to receive it. The temple was dated to 969 A.D. In another spot the Vishnu statue is just outside Shiva Sannidi.
