Sree Subramanya Swami Temple, Perunna

Never heard of this temple before. We came to know about this temple on the last day of our travel in changanassery. We kept our base as changanassery to visit the divya desams there.

On the last day we had some spare time, before we boarded the train in the night. The hotel staff told us about this temple and how it can be reached by walk itself from the hotel.

We didn't want to waste our time in the hotel, so in the evening we went out for a walk to the temple.

The biggest problem in our kerala trip was the communication, hence we were left wondering when we saw this temple. We didnt know the history of the temple, we didnt know that it was an ancient temple, and how the maharaja opened it up for the public for darshan, and how mahatama Gandhi came here to offer his worship.

Read all that now. Feel so happy and thankful that i had indeed visited an ancient and wonderful temple, with rich history.

But when we visited the temple, one thing took me by surprise, and due to communication could not ask anyone why it was like that. The point that took me by surprise was the way the SPEAR of Lord Muruga is pointed down.

For a guy from tamil nadu, this was a total surprise and shock, since we always have seen the SPEAR always up and close to his face.

We were a bit early to the temple in the evening i believe, and they were very slow in doing things in this temple. After quiet sometime, we did have a wonderful darshan of Lord muruga.

Definitely a very good temple to visit.

One of the most famous Lord Muruga Temple in Kerala.Located 2 kms from changanassery.

It's a very temple. Very peaceful....

There is a specialty in this idol, comparing with other idols in temples. The Vel which the Lord is holding is pointed downwards. Muruga is worshipped here in the bhava of "devasenapathi" and he is in a very angry mood as he had just killed 'Tharakasura".

The temple is located at Perunna, Changanacherrry. Lord Murugan is worshipped here. The Vel of Lord Murugan is pointed downwards. Tuesday is an important day in this temple.

One of the oldest temple in Changanaserry. The idol in this temple is special.

One of the oldest temple in kerala must be explored more as a tourist destination. Well infrastructure, spacious, hygiene and peaceful environment. Murals in sreekovil structure is very attractive. A huge beautifully constructed temple pond situated.
