Thavalagireeswarar Venkundram Hill Temple
Thavalagireeswarar Venkundram is a hill temple that is quite challenging to climb. This Thavalagireeswarar temple was located at the top of a 1500 feet high hill called Thavalagiri or Vengundram.
Experts believe the temple was built during the Pallavas. There is an 8th-century inscription recorded to the third regnal year of Nandivarma Pallava in a rock near the temple, and it speaks about the Grama Sabha of Vengundram Village. And also, there is another inscription dated to the Vijayanagara period here. This inscription contains a Telugu inscription on one side and a Sanskrit inscription on the other side. It registers the donations and restorations made to the temple.
Sage Vyasa installed Linga on top of the white mountain (Vengundram), the Linga was called Venguneswarar / Thavalagireeswarar. Lord Shiva gave Jyoti Darshan to Lord Murugan and became a Lingam in the name of Arunachaleswarar.
Traces of ancient walls says this hill might have housed a fort in ancient times. There is a story that the mountain had a secret underground tunnel connecting the hill with Gingee fort and Vandavasi fort. The hill is said to have many medicinal plants, and the water springs are therapeutic.
Karthigai Deepam is a famous festival celebrated here.
