Thirumalapadi Siva Temple, Hindu temple in Ariyalur taluk, India

The Thirumalapadi Siva Temple sits on the northern banks of the Kaveri River, featuring traditional Dravidian architectural elements throughout its structure.

The temple ranks among the 275 Paadal Petra Sthalams, receiving recognition in the medieval Tevaram poems by Tamil Saivite saints Tirugnanasambandar, Tirunavukkarasar, and Sundarar.

Lord Shiva manifests as Vaidyanathaswami in this temple, with Goddess Parvati worshipped as Sundarambikai, representing the divine union in Hindu theology.

The temple welcomes visitors throughout the year, with the main celebration of Nandikesvarar thirukalyanam taking place during March or April.

A bronze statue of Thiruvalluvar weighing 750 kilograms stands within the temple grounds, representing the largest metallic figure of the poet in Tamil Nadu.
