Thirumanimadam, Hindu temple in Thirunangur, India
The Narayanan Perumal Temple features a five-tiered granite gateway tower and contains multiple shrines dedicated to different deities within its stone walls.
The temple, constructed in Dravidian architectural style, holds inscriptions from the 10th-century Chola period and received recognition in medieval Tamil religious texts.
Four daily rituals honor Vishnu as Narayanan and Lakshmi as Pundarikavalli, following traditional Vaishnava practices passed through generations of priests.
The temple opens twice daily, from 8 AM to 10 AM and 5 PM to 7 PM, with designated priests performing specific ceremonies at scheduled intervals.
Strategically placed openings in the temple tower allow sunlight to illuminate the standing east-facing deity, connecting solar worship with architectural design.
