Started to this temple after visiting Kasi Viswanathar temple which is 15 Kms away from there.I took a car for this trip and would suggest the same as I could hardly see any buses plying on this route.Cars can reach the Temple directly from base after paying a fee. The route to hill is very scenic with lush green. Temple is dedicated to Lord Murugan with huge Bairavar Sannadhi. Only drawback is the temple administrators are switching lights inside temple which makes temple dark even on Day time. Otherwise a must visit place for God's Blessings and Scenic locales enroute to Hill.

Chitra sabhai - one of the Pancha Sabhas of Lord Shiva. The Chitra Sabhai is located near the parking area of main falls. It is around 500m from the main temple. The Chitra Sabhai is a hall of pictures and displays a beautiful painting of Lord Natraja. The interiors of the temple is decked with beautiful murals, depicting images from the Indian epics and history. The place is mesmerizing. They charge an entrance ticket of Rs.10 per person, camera and mobiles are not allowed.

Kasi viswanathar temple at Thenkasi is a Sivan temple (Lord Shiva) - very divine and believed to be very powerful. Temple itself is a Engineering marvel - e.g. When you walk into the temple, the wind would blow into your face and similarly even when you walk out of the temple, the wind would blow from the opposite direction into your face.. Easily accessible. Parking on the road outside the temple. Lot of small restaurants offers hygienic food around the temple. (Shorts/ Skirts, etc. not allowed)

This is a Paadal Petra Sthalam. Very historic temple. This is the Hall of Paintings or Chitra Sabai of the 5 Sabais or Pancha Sabais of Nataraja. The temple itself is shaped like a conch. The Chitra Sabai is located away from the main temple and should be missed.

We visited Agasthiyar Falls in the middle of February. The falls is surrrounded by lush green forest and the whole place looks magical. The waterfalls is quite good with a wall dividing the men and women bathing area. Water is heavenly with lots of herbs. The force of the water is surpringly heavy though the height is around 25 ft only. The surpring thing is that all animals roam here after 5:00 p.m. so we have to leave by 4:30 p.m. In all the whole experience left me thrilled. Will definitely go back again

Happy to write this comment on the day of Kattabomman Birthday today(Jan 3rd). Have visited this place many times. This time took my family and especially my son who has a book to study about Kattabomman history in his curriculum. It is a historical site and not a tourist location. About 4 KM drive from the main 4 way lane from Kurukuchallai arch in the Tuticorin-Madurai highway. Little dry drive with lots of cattles roaming around and few houses. There is a small shop outside the fort which will help you to get some snacks, water and ice cream. Rs. 2 INR is charged as entrance fee. 1) Get into the fort and understand the history through the paintings which has both Tamil and English descriptions. Replica of the fort painting available at London Muesuem is available as well. 2) Visit the old fort area, now fenced by the ASI India, to understand the attempt to rebuild the fort using jaggery in 6 days. Royal court , kitchen, some rooms and old utensils used could be visible from outside 3) Some of the mani mandapam's (Bell tower) outside the fort area are visible as well About 1 hour can be spent and can be relaxed under the tree shade for a while before returning back. MUST visit for family, kids and any history lovers. It is NOT a tourist attraction.Govt should consider improving the surrounding Garden area.
