Thirunindravur.

Thiruninravur is a big village, 30 kms away from Chennai.The Gopurams of the temples dedicated to Shiva and Vishnu dominate the sky line.

Sri Bhaktavatsala swamy is the name of the presiding deity in the Vishnu temple.'Yenna petha thayaar' is his consort.This is a divya desam.

The temple is said to be more than 1500 years old . Thirumangai Azhwar, Sri Ramanuja and Sri Raghavendra have said to have worshipped the deity enshrined in here.

A lone parrot's throaty chuckle greeted me from the Gopuram.The good darshan of Sri Bhaktavatsala swamy coupled with the gentle breeze flowing through the quiet prakaram was very uplifting.
