Palavanthangal

Pazhavanthangal (also called Palavanthangal) is a railway station in the Beach-Tamabram metro rail route in Chennai. Named after the small settlement with the same name adjoining the station, it also serves as the railway point for the bigger Nanganallur. This station came into being in the 1970s and lies between St.Thomas Mount and Meenambakkam railway stations. This serves as the railway node to the famous Anjaneyar temple and the adjoining temples of Nanganallur. Close to it is the Palavanthangal subway which serves as the main road entry to Nanganallur from the GST Road.
