SrI: Dear Sriman Srinivasan Swamy: namaskArams:: YOu are blessed to have darshan of Sri Hastigiri PeraruLalan of Kanchi. He is Hasitigiri SigrOjavala Paarijaathan! From adiyEns experience, would like to give some tips on the travel. First you reach near Kanchi railway station and start visit the following places : Time ------------------------------------------Divyadesams 7.00 A.M --------- Thiru Kaarvanam - Thiru PavalavaNNam (both are opposite to each other) 7.40 A.M --------- Thiru ParamEshwara ViNNagaram 8.15 - 8.45 A.M.--- You can have your breakfast Then start moving towards Kanchi Kamakshi Amman Temple. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9.00 A.M -------- Thiru KaLvanur (inside Kamakshi Amman Temple) There is a special entrance at the back side of Sri Kamakshi Amman Garbagraham for Perumal darshan. He is situated on the right side of grabhagraham of Ambal. You have to wait sometime to get permission to enter inside. 9.45 A.M -------- Thiru Ooragam (Just opposite to Kaamakshi Amman Temple) ALso known as Ulagalantha Perumal Koil. This temple has two other divyadesams inside.(ie) Thiru Neerakam and Thiru Kaaragam. A separate Sannithi is present for these two divyadesa emperumAns inside the temple. From this temple, Ekambareswar temple is a small drive. 10.30 A.M --------- Thiru Nilathingal Thundathaan (inside EkambarEswar temple) He is situated in a separate small sannidhi inside the temple. Can have immediate darshan. 10.45 A.M --------- Thiru Paadakam (travel just opposite from ekambareswar temple rajagopuram and turn right - You will reach Pandava Dhuthar sannidhi) By this time you have completed 8 divyadesams and time would be around 11.30 or 12.00 Noon. Hence visiting the temples at Vishnu Kanchi would be better after the Lunch hours. From 12.00 Noon to 3.30 P.M --- Lunch and Rest The below 5 temple are clubbed together and start from Kanchi Hastigiri Varadarajar Sannidhi 3.30 P.M. ------------- Kanchi Sri Varadaraja Perumal You can spent some time inside temple. Have good darshan of Sri PeraruLAlan and Sri Perundevi thayar and seek THEIR Blessings!. If possible recite some slOkams from Devaraja Ashtakam, Devaraja Panchakam or From Sri Kuresar's VARADARAJA STHAVAM. As Swamy Desikan said, He is GREAT NIDHI for all of us! 4.45 P.M -------------- Thiru Vekka (right side on the T.K.Nambi street from Varadarajar temple) 5.20 P.M. ------------- Ashtabuyakaram ( Parallel to the above temple i.e. left side on T.K. Nambi street) From Ashtabuyakaram, you have to take a road to Thiru thanka. On the way you can have darshan of Thiru Velukkai. 5.40 P.M. ------------- Thiru Velukkai (Sri Azhagiya Singar Sannithi) 6.30 P.M. ------------- Thiru Thanka (Sri Deepa Prakasar and Sri Desikar Sannidhi-Avatara sthalam). The next day, you can have trip to THIRUPUT KUZHI and also KOORAM (Sri KooratAzhwan Avatar sthalam). Kooram is a small village near VeLLai Gate (bus stop name). Also you can visit Saalai KinaRu ( a divine well) used by Srimad Ramanujar for thiruvaaradhana kaimkaryam to Lord Varadarajar! The timings mentioned above are approximate. It may vary depending on the speed of darshan, time you are spending inside temple, mode of travel, et.c, HAVE GOOD DARSHAN AND RECEIVE THE BLESSINGS OF DIVYADAMPATHIS! adiyEn, senthil.b --- On Tue, 3/6/08, S.
