During the search for the Ellai Amman Temples
of Mambalam, I came across this Temple on Lake View Road ( Where is the Lake now?). This temple is in
the middle of the Lake View road between Ramakrishnapuram to Duraiswamy subway.
Main Deity : Sri Thulukanathamman.
Some of the important details of this temple are,...
