108 Divya desams, Sacred temple complex in Tamil Nadu, India.

The network of temples encompasses 105 locations in India and one in Nepal, with sacred structures dedicated to Lord Vishnu across different states.

The temples gained recognition between the 6th and 9th centuries through the devotional hymns of twelve Alvar saints, documenting their spiritual experiences in Tamil verses.

Devotees follow specific worship patterns at each temple, performing rituals and reciting the Nalayira Divya Prabandham collection of 4,000 Tamil verses.

The temples maintain regular visiting hours from sunrise to sunset, with dedicated priests conducting six daily ceremonial services following Vaishnava traditions.

Two of the 108 Divya Desam temples exist beyond Earth's physical realm, representing celestial locations mentioned in religious texts.
