treasures and natural marvels, like the seat of the virgin goddess
Parvathi, the Vivekananda Rock Memorial, Gandhi Smaraka Bhavan

spectacle of sunset and moon rise on full moon days. They are luring

temples called Guhainatheeswarar and Kasi Viswanathar, where regular
Saivagama pujas are offered daily with great veneration. Of the two,

recent origin, built for the exclusive use of a religious Matt, but
is opened for public to offering prayers. Besides these two, there

Christians. Its cosmopolitan character is exuding in many ways.

humanitarian activities.
