Narthana Vallabeswarar temple, Hindu temple in Thirukoodalaiyathoor, Tamil Nadu, India

The temple extends across half an acre of land with multiple shrines contained within rectangular granite walls and a three-tiered entrance gateway.

The temple foundation dates from the Chola period, while the current stone structure was constructed during the Nayak dynasty in the 16th century.

This sacred site appears in the Tevaram, a 7th-century Tamil Saiva religious text written by Tamil saint poets known as the Nayanars.

The temple conducts four daily ceremonies from morning to evening and maintains regular visiting hours for devotees seeking blessings from Shiva.

The temple stands at the meeting point of three rivers: Vellaaru, Manimuthaaru, and Akaya Ganges, making it a significant pilgrimage destination.
