In this sacred land, there is no village without a Temple. In these villages, temples also serve as centres of social life. It is a well known fact that millions and millions of people derive great pleasure and peace of mind by worshipping the Lord in His idol forms kept in these temples.

About Sri Santhana Gopala Krishnaswamy  Temple, Sholavandhan
There is one such ancient temple dedicated to Lord Krishna with His consorts Rukmini & Sathyabhama (Rukmini Sathyabhama Sametha Sri Santhana Gopala Krishnaswamy) on the banks of the holy river Vaigai in Sholavandan, a village in Madurai District, Tamil Nadu State of India. In this temple complex there are temples dedicated to "Sri Hanuman" & "Shri Ganesa" also.  There is one "Brindavanam" of "Poojyasri Raghavendra Swami" also in this complex. This temple is more than 300 years old. As no renovation work has been performed in this temple for nearly 100 years, this temple needs full scale renovation urgently.

(Renovation Work in progress)

Renovation & Blessings  We, the residents of this small village, have formed this Trust for this purpose and have started the work of renovation. H.H.Ramanuja Jeer Swami of the ancient Vanamamalai Mutt is guiding us in this great task (please see "Shrimukham"). H.H. Bharathi Theertha Mahaswamigal (Shri Shankaracharya of Sringeri Mutt) visited the temple site and has blessed our efforts.
