We (Vanchi amma, vanchi, Vidya, Akshaya, Gayathri, Bhavani Srinidhi & myself) asked share auto in the beach station for below two temple & back to station. The rate was 200/- so we decided to walk to the temples We visited the Mallekeswarar temple . It is very big and ancient temple. Located in Thambu chetty street. One of the busy streets in Chennai.

In a prabhakara we had darshan of Dhakshinamurthy, mahadeva, kailasanathar,kasi viswanathar,Bhairavar & 63 Nayanmars. Only in old shiva temples we can see few more shivas in prabharas.

Next there is tap to clean your hands. Then we walked few steps to reach the temple. Hear you can see the navagrahas in a circle position in the center surya bhagwan. This is different from other navagraha temple positions. Generally they all arranged in a 3 rows .in each row 3 gods.

Then we saw one Annapoorani amman here they donate rice to this amman. nice to watch the persons standing a queue to offer the rice to annapoorani. Then we saw anjaneya main deity in sindoor decoration. ...
