KURTALAM - KURTALANATHAR TIRUKKOVIL

In the holy picnic town of Kutralam, there is a little, yet charming Sivan kovil, enshrining a big Sivalinga, going by the name of Kutralanathar. It has the proud privilege of receiving worship by almost all devout bhaktas and chance picnic tourists after bath, who visit the waterfalls for bath, presuming a dip in the water cures skin diseases. And soon after the bath, all, invariably direct their steps into the mandir for soulful worship, invoking the Lord to cure their malady - mental or physical. And Lord Siva too is bestowing boons and lifting them in accordance with the merit of devotion. He never left piety cry in wilderness. The temple, though small contains all the Saivate gods.

It is very near to Tirunelveli, the district head quarters town of the same name in Tamil Nadu.
