Rock Fort

Rockfort
Malai Kottai at Trichy in Tamil Nadu
The temple complex is composed of two parts: a Shiva temple (Thayumanaswamy) carved in the middle of the rock and a Ucchi Pillayar koil Pillayar (Ganesh) temple at the top portion of the rock. The Shiva temple is the bigger one, housing a massive stone statue of Shiva in the form of Linga along with a separate sanctum for goddess Parvati. The temple is mystic in its nature with an awe-inspiring rock architecture. Taayumaanavar Koyil Shivastalam and Rock-Cut Temple..
