Talked to an autorickshaw guy he agreed to take me to Javadu hills and Kolappanneri Lake for Rs 500. Finished both the places by 11 am. Spent around , 1 hour 15 minutes to see both the places and spend some time there, take photos and videos. This area is under the control of the forest and there is a forest check post. The travel to Jamnamarthur in the morning was pretty cold. The waterfalls are quite nice to see, see the panoramic photos uploaded separately. At this time of the season, there is no heavy rush of water in the falls, the flow

Javadu Water falls was moderate. This place is situated in a jungle so some creepers hanging from trees, some are thick as these may be pretty old. Similarly could see Banyan trees with aerial prop roots that mature into thick, woody trunks, which can become indistinguishable from the primary trunk with age.

Javadu Water falls 1/2 km to reach Golden Temple. I was lucky I could spend 15 minutes in front of the diety then again 10 minutes in front of the diety, much closer, they gave us places to be seated. Rs 1000 ticket is available so that you will be taken inside the first sanctum where you can be seated and give the pujaris your offering, they will do the prayers with the flower you give them. The diety is in the Inner spectrum. This entire temple is built in granite then covered in pure Golden sheet. This temple is situated in the pond, water surrounds the temple, this adds to the beauty to the temple. The free darshan people and who has taken Rs 100 rupees ticket was waved off after having glimpses of the god in the sanctum, they did not get a chance to spend more time in front of the diety for praying. I took around 2 hours to finish the darshan. I went inside the temple premises y 4.05 pm and returned by 6.25 pm. Bought some Prasadam. I started from Vellore at 7.25 pm and reached back to Thiruvannamalai by 9.50 pm.

Javadu Water falls is a spiritual park that was inaugurated in 2007. Spread across 100 acres of land. The temple is patronized by throngs of devotees from the neighboring cities and towns on a daily basis.
The structure and design of the Vellore Golden temple truly stand out. The forehead of the Sripuram golden temple is protected with a layer of gold and comprises of intricate designs and art forms (around 1500 kg of gold was used to make the forehead). LED lights placed strategically around the forehead of the temple lights up in the evenings, offering a truly spectacular sight. Therefore, the sheer architectural brilliance of the temple makes it a must-visit place. It is important to note that the star-shaped path referred to as Sri Chakra has Vedic significance.
