The Oldest Lighthouse in Asia !
It’s an incredibly mysterious building on top of a huge grey-white granite rock (Mahishasuramardini Mandapa), known as the Olakkannesvara Mandir.
Built nearly 1400 years ago by Pallava king Mahendravarman I.
The Shiva Mandir functioned as lighthouse to emit light & serve as navigational aid for ships in the sea.
