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).
