SRI
VISALAKSHI SAMEDHA SRI KASI VISWANATHAR TEMPLE.
Our
second stop was at a Shiva temple at St. Thomas Mount, which was once called as
Parangi malai. The temple must be 200 to 300 years old and only a
recent inscription is there.
On
the entrance wall there is an inscription tablet, which speaks about the
place of the temple Bringi malai ( from the recent period inscriptions )
and the properties it has for its maintenance. On the opposite side of
the Rajagopuram, the Nandavanam was completely encroached. The
gate pillar Nandhi was also merged to the house staircase. For the details of
my previous visit please click the link…. Click

This war Cemetery was not in our agenda and only few people after
taking breakfast ( Before others completes their breakfast ) at Hotel
Sangeetha ventured in to it. Compared to my previous visit this temple it was
restricted to take photographs. During December 2015 flood the cemetery
was submerged under knee deep water.
THE WAR CEMETERY
The stone slabs with
inscriptions were installed in memory of the British peoples killed
during world war, between 1939 to 1945. Actually the bodies are not buried
here. These memory stones include the personal worked in army as well as
civilians also.
