In Tamil Nadu, there
is a district called Karur. This place
is situated between Tiruchirappalli and Erode.
It was embellished with the river called Amaravati. Actually the river Amaravati originated from
the bottom of the valley of Palani Hills and Aanaimalai Hills. It starts to
flow from this place and travels through Udumalaippet near Kovai, Dharapuram
and Aravakkuricchi and reaches Karur.
By the water source
of this Amaravati-river, Thiruppur and Karur districts are found developed. This river helps the people of Karur
district. In and around Karur, people cultivate cotton corps with the help of
water source of Amaravati. So, the textile
industries become highly flourished. Shanmuga
nadhi, Kudaganaaru and Upparu are Amaravati’s tribunals. It flows through the places like PasupathiPalaiyam,
Panchamadevi, nerur etc.
On the banks of the
river Amaravati, near Pasupathi-Palaiyam, there is Pasupatheesvara temple for
the Lord Siva, near the hill station called ThaanthondriMalai, there is
KalyanaVenkataramana Svami temple for the Lord Vishnu, near Panchamadevi, there
is a temple of the Lord Venugopal and near Nerur, there is a memorial shrine
for a great saint called Sadasiva BrahmendraSvamigal.
