AROUND mahamaham
Mahamaham 2016 officially is between 13-22 February 2016. Different poojas will be undertaken throught the month of February and March. Visitors are allowed to take a dip in the holy waters of Mahamaham on 22 February. Around 8 Lakh devotees are expected to visit this time. They will be allowed in batches. No vehicle will be allowed around 6 KM radius from the Mahamaham Tank on that day.
Ideally a Three-day stay from 20th or 21st Feb to 22nd or 23rd Feb is enough to visit all the Navagraha Temples and take holy dip in Kumbakonam. For those who have longer staying plans can CONTACT US for a customized itnirary.
