Ramaswamy
temple |
Here Lord Rama
gives darshan in His coronation robes. Both Rama and Sita are seated on
the same peeta and Hanuman is depicted as singing in praise of the Lord
with the help of a veena.
The 62 pillars
in the front mandapam are great works of art. Scenes from the Ramayana
are painted on the walls of the prakaram.
Note: There is a charge of Rs.25 for camera if you want to take photos,
but no receipt will be given.
