Kailasanathar Temple, Srivaikuntam, Hindu temple in Srivaikuntam, India.

The Kailasanathar Temple contains detailed granite sculptures within its 110-foot tall entrance tower and features a standing Vishnu statue supported by Adishesha serpent.

The temple received patronage from Pandya rulers Jatavarman Kulasekaran I and Maravarman Sundara Pandyan during the 12th and 13th centuries through documented gifts.

This temple belongs to the Nava Tirupati group of nine sacred sites along the Tamiraparani river, recognized in the Nalayira Divya Prabandham Tamil canon.

The temple follows a schedule of six daily rituals and remains open from 7:30 AM to 12:00 PM and 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM for visitors.

According to legend, a cow revealed the submerged image of Vaikunthanathar by performing ablution, leading to the deity receiving the name Pal Pandian.
