From Bukkathurai you reach a village called Natarajapuram. From here u travel 4 kms in the Sirupinayur road.

Speciality:

This temple was built about 2500years ago.

We learn this from the inscriptions.

The left foot of the Ambaal is laid a little in front such that she is ready to bless the devotees who approach her.

The Murugan idol of this temple is made of Single stone. 

The temple is considered to have great medicinal value for people with mental problems. This is a temple for Pariharam. 

The Brahmahathi idol is a special feature here.



There is another Shiva temple about 2kms from this temple. The name of that shiva is also Thiruvandeeswarar.
