Sri Varadha Rajar Sesha Vaham at Thiruvallikkeni 2016

The annual brahmothsavam of Sri Varadharaja Swami  is now on and today 22nd  May 2016  is day 4 – At Thiruvallikkeni, there is purappadu in evening only and it was Sesha vahanam today and here are some photos taken during purappadu.  The uthsavam follows the Uthsavam at Thirukachi. 



Kanchi has a rich history and was associated with the Pallava dynasty as the Pallava rulers ruled the Thondai mandalam for long.  Pallavas established their capital at Kanchi (modern day Kanchipuram famous for weaving and silk sarees) which gradually became popular and famous for its temples and as center of Vedic learning.  At Vishnu Kanchi, is the famous temple – Perumal Kovil - temple of Lord Varadharaja Perumal, known as Hastagiri.  The Temple is a huge one on a 23-acre  complex and shows the architectural skills of ancient Vishwakarma Sthapathis in temple architecture and is famous for its holiness and ancient history.
