Thiruvazhmarban Temple, Hindu temple in Thiruvanparisaram Village, Tamil Nadu, India

The temple spreads across 2 acres with a five-tiered gopuram gateway and granite walls enclosing the central shrine of Lord Vishnu.

Dating back to at least 1139 AD, the temple received renovations from King Kulasekhara and Thirumalai Nayak who constructed the temple tank.

The temple celebrates multiple festivals throughout the year, including the ten-day Chittirai Brahmotsavam where deities parade in chariots.

Located 5 kilometers from Nagercoil and 20 kilometers from Kanyakumari, the temple maintains six daily pujas under Kanyakumari Devasthanam administration.

The main deity statue stands 9 feet tall, crafted from Kadu Sarkarai Yogam, a special mixture of stone and lime bound with sugar and mustard.
