In this second article of LakshmiNarayana Temple , we cover the internal structure of the temple. On entering inside this temple one may experience a sense of satisfaction and brings peace to one's mind - such is the way the carvings are sculptured and the feel inside.
On tapping pillar stones , we could hear the tone of tapping a steel. The priest here said these pillars were brought to this place using elephants which used to push them all the way , in those days during construction.
