Tirucherai Sivasthalam, Hindu temple in Tirucherai, Tamil Nadu, India.
The temple complex extends over 10 acres with three enclosures, featuring granite structures and multiple ceremonial halls called Sabhas for religious ceremonies.
Built during ancient times, the temple gained prominence when saint Manikkavasagar composed the sacred text Tiruvasakam within its walls during the 9th century.
The temple performs six daily worship ceremonies led by Nambiar Brahmins, following specific traditions passed down through generations of religious practitioners.
Located at coordinates 10.9322°N and 79.5328°E, the temple remains open for visitors who can observe the architectural details and participate in religious ceremonies.
The main shrine contains no physical representation of the deity, featuring only a pedestal that aligns with Hindu philosophy of formless divinity.
