Thiru Parameswara Vinnagaram or Vaikunta Perumal Temple is a Hindu temple dedicated to the God Vishnu. Constructed in the Dravidian style of architecture, the temple is glorified in the Nalayira Divya Prabandham, the early medieval Tamil canon of the Alvar saints from the 6th through the 9th centuries CE. It is one among the 108 Divya Desams dedicated to the God Vishnu, who is worshipped as Vaikuntanathan (lit. ‘Lord of Vaikunta’) and his consort, the Goddess Lakshmi as Sri Vaikundavalli. The temple is considered the second oldest extant temple in Kanchipuram after the Kailasanathar temple.

This is not a heritage museum. It’s a old traditional house where you can find collection of everyday items used over 100 years that belong exclusively to Kanchipuram, reflecting its ancient and exclusive culture.

Mamandur is a village in Tiruvanamalai district of Tamil Nadu, India. It is located on the Kanchipuram – Vandavasi road, near Dusi and about 15 km from Kanchipuram. It is known for the 7th-century rock-cut cave temple, housing a Tamil Brahmi inscription, one of the monuments of national importance as declared by the Archaeological Survey of India.

Silk Weaving: Kanchipuram is popular for its Silk Sarees. Weaving is very popular. We will take you to a weaving place and show you how the weaving is done. Please note that we will not be taking you to the silk production farm.

Architecturally beautiful Kailasanathar Temple:

The temple was first of its kind of stone architecture as compared to others in Pallava that were stone carved or rock cut. The foundation made of granite withstands the load of the entire massive structure. With over 58 shrines made in niches of the compound wall, the temple stands out as an epitome of construction with sandstone. Pillars of the mandapa have statues of lions standing on their hind legs, symbolizing people not to harm the temple.

Magnificent temple has a good serial vision, that has to be experienced, rather being written.

So come down with us to enjoy this trip and know more about Kancheepuram – the temple town
