Voyalanallur Temples
Tucked away in Tamil Nadu's tranquil landscape, the lesser-known village of Voyalanallur, lying just 40 kilometers from Chennai, harbors the secrets of two ancient temples, one dedicated to Lord Kandaswamy and the other to Lord Shiva.
A short stroll from the Kandaswamy temple, beside a lotus pond, awaits the temple of Shaktimutreeswarar, housing a sizable Shiv Linga from the Chola period. Although the temple structure and the images of Nandi and the Goddess have a more modern design, the charm of an ancient Surya image, unearthed during an excavation, graces this sacred space.
