Sendamangalam

Sendamangalam lies near the foot of the Kolli Hills, east of Namakkal in the Tamil inland country. The hills rise above the surrounding plains and carry the temple of Arapaleswarar, a shrine dedicated to Shiva. Sendamangalam is one of the approaches to this upland, whose wooded slopes and streams stand apart from the cultivated low country. Temples in the town include those of Lakshmi Narayana Perumal and Someswarar.
