SURUTUPALLI - PALLIKONDA SIVAPERUMAN AALAYAM

Next to this lies Mother's Sannidhi enshrining a four-foot-high granite icon and around the garbha griha there are many rare sculptures like Valmiki, Dampathi Dakshinamurti etc. To its left, in a separate minishrine there lies Valmikeswara linga, and just opposite there is installed another Sivalinga too. With many such unique features it is drawing the theists and art critics throughout the year. As everything is here enchanting, wearing an aura of oddity in divinity, visitation of this Aalayam - the only one of its kind in India affords an elevating experience and confers solace that remains in the hearts for ever. Its vast courtyards and beautifully sculptured icons are worthy of visitation and obeisance.

Surutupalli lies in the Chittoor district of Andhra Pradesh and is accessible by bus from either Nagalapuram in Andhra Pradesh or Uthukota in Tamil Nadu on the main road to Madras from Puttur (Andhra Pradesh).
