Thirumanikkoodam, Hindu temple in Thirunangur, India

The temple features a single courtyard and a main shrine where Varadaraja Perumal stands facing east with consorts Sridevi and Bhudevi.

This temple gained recognition in the early medieval Tamil canon, composed by Alvar saints between the 6th and 9th centuries CE.

Four daily rituals take place in the temple, including Ushathkalam, Kalasanthi, Sayarakshai, and Ardha Jamam, each involving decorations and food offerings.

Visitors can reach the temple via Tiruchirapalli airport, located 150 kilometers away, or through Sirkazhi railway station at 11 kilometers distance.

According to local tradition, Krishna began teaching Arjuna at this location, while Arjuna himself created the temple tank.
