Tiruvannamalai visit

In June 2011, my wife and I visited Tiruvannamalai, a famous pilgrimage center in Tamil Nadu, India. We walked around the famous hill barefoot. We started at 5.45 AM and could complete in about 3 h and 45 m. The distance was about 13.5 km.After the parikrama, we visited the famous temple. We also visited the dam at Sattanur (35 km away) and also Sri Ramana Maharshi and Sri Seshadri Swamigal ashrams.
