2. Sholingur Narasimha Swamy Temple

After darshan at Thiruthani, the journey continues to Sholingur, where devotees climb 1300 steps to worship Lord Yoga Narasimha. The temple is located atop the Periya Malai (Big Hill) and is known for its healing energy. If you're traveling with elderly people or children, a rope car facility is available to reach the top safely and easily.
