Kodi Kuzhagar Temple, Hindu temple in Kodikkarai, India.

The Kodi Kuzhagar Temple contains three outer courtyards and a five-tiered gateway tower built in the Dravidian architectural style of Tamil Nadu.

The temple structure dates back to the Chola dynasty period, with inscriptions documenting grants from kings Aditya Chola and Rajaraja Chola I.

The temple performs six daily rituals and houses granite images of deities including Kuzhagar, Ganesha, Murugan, Nandi, and the Navagraha arranged in a linear formation.

The Hindu Religious and Endowment Board of Tamil Nadu maintains the temple, which remains open for visitors throughout the year.

According to local tradition, Lord Rama left carved footprints at this temple before his journey to Lanka, marking his presence at this sacred site.
