In Ancient Tamil literature, the river also called Ponni. The Kaveri is a sacred river to the people of the south Indian worshipped as the Kaveri Amma. It is considered as the seventh holy rivers of the India.

The Kaveri river is also known as Dakshin Ganga or Ganga of the South. Before emptying the Bay of  Bengal south of Cuddalore Tamil Nādu  the river  breaks in to a large number of distributaries forming a wide delta called the Garden of the south India.

The river originates as spring feeding tank. The waters are then said to flow underground to emerge as the Kaveri river.

Best days  in Monsoon  time July - September.

  Awesome place. The place is very clean and the Kaveri starting point amazing to see.  The peak we went their were no crowd and chill climate. Good view from the Hill top of the temple. it seems as  a science place to around the greenery.

      Although there is no information on the exact date & time on the construction of the Sri Bhagadeshwara temple & other temples around this area, it to be more than 1000 years old. It was built during The Cholas Dynasty. 

 

The place has been named after Sri Bhaganda Maharshi who lived there along with his disciples. He did penance to invoke the blessings of Lord Shiva.

The lord blessed him & assured him of his presence.
