Someswarar Tirukkovil

The ancient Sivan Tirukkovil faces east and is located next to the famous Sarangapani temple. It contains three Sivalingas - one installed by Kubera, another by Mahavishnu and the principal one by the Moon-god. It is a big temple possessing vast courtyards and several minishrines for parivaradevathas. Due to association with the highest divinities, it is visited by large number of devotees always.
