VAIDESWARAN KOIL

THE TEMPLE

This holy place sanctified by that humanitarian doctor Vaideeswaran - greatest among the Vaidyas, is enshrining the Swayambhu Sivalinga of that Bliaktavasankar. Theist monarches built many vast Mandapams, enclosures, mini-shrines later and made it a yatrasthala of great importance. It emerged as an architectural marvel of high order, with the benign touch of royalty. 

The Pallava architectural pattern predominates. It is quite spacious surrounded by two high sturdy prakarams and four tall towers. And it stands exceedingly majestic, heightening the beauty of the landscape. It faces West. It has two tanks called Siddhamritha Thirtham and Jatayukundam inside the prakara. And a bath in them cures all the skin diseases.
