Historical vignettes seem to pop out from every corner of the ‘Thevar Vilas’ in Woraiyur’s Vandikarar Street.
Once the family seat of Congressman, freedom fighter, Tiruchi Municipality chairman and sports enthusiast P. Rathnavelu Thevar (1888-1948), also known as P.R. Thevar, the stately home’s most precious furnishings are perhaps the stories and artefacts associated with him.
