One of the (17 temple : 12 Shiva and 5 Vishnu) five temples connected with Mahamaham
User: Delzem, There are 17 Temples which have connection with the famous
Mahamaham festival which is held once in 12 years in
Mahamaham tank, Kumbakonam which is situated at
Kumbakonam, in
Thanjavur district of
Tamil Nadu,
India. Of these 17 Hindu temples 12 temples belong to
Shiva while the other are
Vishnu Temples. In
Hindu temples of Kumbakonam The left out temples have been added. Of the 12 Shiva temples 10 temples are found in Kumbakonam and are incorporated in
Hindu temples of Kumbakonam. Other two Shiva temples are around Kumbakonam. Regarding
Rajagopalaswamy Temple, Kumbakonam I wish to state that this is one of the five Vishnu temples connected with Mahamamaham. The five temples are
Sarangapani Temple,
Chakrapani Temple,
Ramaswamy Temple,
Rajagopalaswamy Temple, and Varahaperumal Temple. Of these five temples there were articles on the first three temples. As articles on Rajagopalaswamy Temple and Varahaperumal Temple, new article entitled Rajagopalaswamy Temple, Kumbakonam was started. Shortly article on Varaharaperumal Temple which is left out in this list, will be written. As the Mahamaham festival is a world renowned festival and the 17 temples are very important, I felt that no temple should be left out in Wiki and I started writing on them. As it is connected with Mahamaham festival the link is given with the Mahamaham. The Mahasamprokshanam also known as Kumbabishegam of the temple was held on June 19, 2015 and the information was added with the available link. Attempts have been made to improve the article and give links. Now the link in
Mahamaham tank, Kumbakonam also about these temples was added. In due course, information will be added, whenever available. If you require any more information I will try to share. This information is shared in your user page also. Regards.--
