Varadaraja Perumal Temple, Shoolagiri, Hindu temple in Shoolagiri, Krishnagiri district, India
The Varadaraja Perumal Temple stands in Shoolagiri with its garbhagraha sanctuary and front mantapam hall constructed in traditional Tamil architectural style.
The temple construction began with the initial consecration by Arjuna during the Mahabharata period, followed by expansions from Chola kings and Krishnadeva Raya.
The temple holds special ceremonies during Utharayana when sunlight illuminates Lord Varadaraja Perumal's feet at sunset from January through July.
The temple maintains regular worship schedules with morning ceremonies from 6:00 AM to 12:00 PM and evening ceremonies from 4:00 PM to 9:30 PM.
The temple features the largest Garuda vahanam in the region, while Varadaraja Perumal faces west and Mother Perundevi Mahalakshmi faces east.
