Rishi (Lord Buddha) Temple, Padavedu

Rishi (Lord Buddha) Temple, Padavedu
Rishi Temple is located near Renugambal Temple. Rishi Statue was found and consecrated in the newly built temple. There might be old temple dedicated to this rishi. Some dilapidated sculptures can be seen around this temple.


Rishi Statue looks similar to Lord Buddha. There might be an Old Buddhist Vihara functioning in this area in the bygone era.


Some thorough archaeological excavations have to be done to establish this fact.
