Uppiliappan Temple, Hindu temple in Tiruvinnagar, Thanjavur district, India

The stone temple features towering entrance gates, detailed wall carvings, and multiple shrines dedicated to different forms of Lord Vishnu.

The temple complex contains inscriptions from the Chola dynasty period, marking its construction and development during their reign in Tamil Nadu.

Devotees gather during the Tamil months of Panguni and Vaikasi to participate in religious ceremonies, traditional music performances, and temple processions.

Visitors need to remove shoes before entering the temple premises and can obtain special prayers from priests between 6:00 AM and 8:00 PM.

The central deity represents Lord Vishnu as Uppiliappan, depicted with a slim figure showing fondness for dairy products like butter and curds.
