THIRUVALANGADU - THE ABOBE OF SIVA

Very recently, I visited the place called  THIRUVALANGADU.  This place is  located   near Manavur  i,e four places after  Trivellore.  I left my house from Villivakkam  by  Electric Train which goes to Arrkonnam.  The train reached  Thiruvalangadu Station  after 1 1/2 hour.  From there  i took an auto.  This beautiful place is located exactly   five kms from Thriuvalangadu Station.    There is one more way  ie.  the traveller must get down at TRIVELLORE station  and get into a Town bus  reach    Theyru Adi.  From there  catch bus which stops exactly before the main Shrine  i.e  THIRUVALANGADU  Temple.
