Bhu Varaha Swamy temple, Hindu temple in Srimushnam, Tamil Nadu, India
The Bhu Varaha Swamy temple features Dravidian architecture with intricate carvings, towering gateway structures, sculpted pillars, and multiple shrines within its complex.
The temple underwent significant expansion during the 10th century under Chola dynasty rule and later modifications by Thanjavur Nayak ruler Achyutappa Nayak.
The annual chariot festival in April-May demonstrates regional religious harmony, with Muslim communities traditionally providing the ceremonial flag for processions.
The temple maintains six daily prayer sessions and remains accessible throughout the week, with convenient transportation options including buses and auto-rickshaws.
This temple honors Vishnu's incarnation as Varaha, the divine boar, alongside his consort Ambujavalli, through specific rituals and architectural representations.
