Ancient Sanctuary of Lord Vishnu at the Foot of Brahmagiri
Tucked deep within the forested foothills of the Brahmagiri mountain range, Thirunelly Temple is a revered ancient pilgrimage shrine dedicated to Lord Maha Vishnu, known as the Kashi of the South.
The temple is accessed via a serene winding drive through the Brahmagiri forest reserves. Stone pathways lead to the courtyard framed by granite pillars. A path through trees leads to Papanasini stream and the Panchatheertham pond.
