Kanchipuram in
North Tamil Nadu is a great seat of religion, culture and education. It is
hailed as “Nagareshu Kanchi”, the best among cities. The principal deity of
Kanchipuram is Kamakshi and the deities of all the shrines in Kanchipuram face
her temple. The Linga which is believed to be made of sand by Goddess Parvathi
herself is the prithvi linga – that is the central deity of Ekamreshwara temple
here. Ekamreshwara means Lord of the solitary mango, which is the sthala
vruksha.
