Pallikonda Perumal .4th Tirunangur Temple

This  is yet another ancient temple of Vishnu Tirupati . Here we find Lord Vishnu reclining on serpent Adisesha and known as Ranganatha .

Senkamalavalli Thayar is the consort of Ranganatha Swamy

Garuda Azhwar sannidhi is right in front of the main shrine.

Inside  the temple we find small idols of Azhwars .

These temples do not get much crowd except during the festivals .

The temple is very old, small  and ordinary  and we find an idol of Ranganatha on Adisesha above  the main entrance.

I just wonder why these temples were not constructed as grand as other temples which we see in Chidambaram, Sirkazhi or Kumbakonam.

All Tirunangur temples can be visited in half a day. 

Try to start around 8 Am so that it can be completed before 12.Noon.

Arimeya Vinnagaram or Kudamattukoothan 3. Tirunangur temples.

This temple is one among the 11 Vaishnava Tirupatis of  Tirunangur temples associated with Tirumangai Azhwar .

 Lord Vishnu here is in a sitting posture and is known as Koodamattukoothan and and His consort is  Amrithavalli Thayar,

There are separate shrines for Andal and  Rama.

Lord Vishnu appeared as Gopala Krishna to sage Uthanga  hence the Utsavar here is Sri Gopala Krishna

Here we find Chakravarthy Thazhwar idol in a  sitting posture.

The temple has a small 3 tier Gopuram and is situated in a village surrounded by lush green paddy fields. 

It is better to visit these temples during day time .

Temple timing 8 am- 12 Am., evening 4 Pm -7 Pm
