Guest guest Posted August 23, 2001 Report Share Posted August 23, 2001 Dear Bhakthas, As sri Sadagopan pointed out, SriRangapattana temple is the AdiRanga. I have visited the Ranganatha Temple near Sivansamudra near the scenic Gaganachukki Bharachukki Waterfalls,off Malavalli near Mandya which is clearly indicated as the Madhya Ranga by painting on the gopuramvashal of the small temple. Srirangam temple is the Anthya Ranga along the banks of river Kaveri. I dont know why even though Mayavaram Parimalaranganathaswamy temple is nearest to the Mouth, it is not called Anthya Ranga.
