As a follow up to the visitors, there is a Gurudwara Sahib (Holy Sikh Temple) at walking distance from the The Ramanathaswamy Temple. Ample lodging facilities for comfortable stay exist at the Gurudwara Sahib for the pilgrims. Though the management do not charge anything for food or rooms etc, we should donate liberally as the Gurdwara Saheb has no independent source of income.
