Sankara
Mutt
This
is the place which was shifted from Kanchi some 200
years ago. Situated on the banks of Cauvery, even now
the mutt conducts Veda Classes and religious preachings
frequently. Brindavans of three Jagath Guru Acharyas
are seen in the front side of the mutt.
Vedapadasala
This
is bulit by Tanjore Maharaja on the banks of cauvery
in the 17th Century. Though this is more than 300 years
old, Veda classes are being conducted regularly. It
is very marvellous to see the students reciting Vedas
and Manthras in their traditional dress ( Dhoti, Half
shaven head ) in chorus.
