SRI PEELI AMMAN ( BELI AMMAN ) TEMPLE, ANBAZHAKAN NAGAR, MAHATHMA GANDHI NAGAR, THARAMANI, CHENNAI.

12th April 2019.
I used to pass through Tharamani bus Terminus daily to reach my office near Madhya Kailash. A barricaded temple pond  with a temple is on the east side of the bus terminus. Had the chance of visiting this temple on 12th April 2019.

Iraivi         : Sri Peeli Amman

Some of the important details are…
The temple is facing north. The sanctum sanctorum consists of sanctum, antarala and a open muka mandapam. Palipedam and simha vahanam are in the open muka mandapam. Dwara balakis are on the mandapam pillars in the form of stucco images. Vinayagar and Balamurugan are at the entrance of the sanctum. In koshtam Abiramai, Dhakshinamurthy ( south side ) and Durgai.  Amman is in sitting posture with another small Amman at her feet. Unlike other Amman temples the Vimana over the sanctum is of two tiers with single kalasam is a unique feature of this temple. Saptha kannimars are on the west side of the prakaram.
