It's also known as the Jambukeswarar Temple and was built over 1,800 years ago by Emperor Kocengannan Chola. The temple is located on the island of Srirangam, which is also home to the famous Ranganathaswamy temple. The temple is one of the 275 Paadal Petra Sthalams, where all four of the most revered Nayanmars (Saivite Saints) have sung hymns in glory of the Deity. The temple is considered the abode of goddess Akilandeswari, one of the forms of the goddess Parvati. The temple represents the element of water, or neer in Tamil. The temple is one of the five main Shiva temples in Tamil Nadu (Pancha Bhoota Stalam), which stands for the Mahbhta or five great elements.

The temple is less crowded in the early morning and just short distance from the center of Trichy. Inside the temple, a woman sells food like puliyodarai and appam to devotees.

Jambukeswer Temple is one of the five temples dedicated to Lord Shiva as the manifestation of the five elements. This temple represents the element of water, and is also known as the Jala Lingam. It is located near Srirangam, a town famous for its Sri Ranganathaswamy Temple, which is dedicated to Lord Vishnu. I visited Jambukeswer Temple on a sunny day in January. The temple complex is huge and has many smaller shrines and sculptures. The main attraction is the sanctum sanctorum, where the Shiva Lingam is partially submerged in water that comes from an underground spring. The entrance to the sanctum is low and narrow, and only a few people can enter at a time. I felt a sense of awe and devotion as I saw the Lingam surrounded by water. The temple also has a shrine for Goddess Akhilandeswari, who is the consort of Lord Shiva. She is worshipped as the goddess of wisdom and learning. There is a special ritual that takes place every day at noon, where a priest dressed as a woman performs a puja to a holy cow in front of the goddess. This symbolizes the surrender of the ego and the attainment of enlightenment. The temple is very peaceful and serene, and I enjoyed the architecture and the carvings on the pillars and walls. The temple is also home to some elephants and cows, which are considered sacred animals in Hinduism. I fed them some bananas and received their blessings. I spent about two hours in the temple and felt very refreshed and rejuvenated. I learned a lot about the history and significance of the temple and its deities. I would recommend anyone who is interested in spirituality and culture to visit Jambukeswer Temple near Srirangam.

The temple is less commercialized and hence there is tranquility around. You get the vibes of visiting the temple with no efforts my the people around to monetize the divinity. One of the best place to visit in Trichy. The structural is magnificent. Appreciate the sculptures who must have gone through ardous task of making this one of the beautiful place of workshop. The campus is clean and we'll maintained.

JAMBUKESHWAR AKHILANDEESHWARI TEMPLE - TIRUVANAIKOVIL - TAMILNADU. Jambukeswarar Temple is a famous Shiva temple in Thiruvanaikaval near Trichy. The temple was built by Kocengannan (Kochenga Chola),one of the Early Chola, around 1,800 years ago. Thiruvanaikal is one of the five major Panchabhoota Sthalams (5 Elements of creation) representing the element of Water. The sanctum of Jambukeswara has an underground water spring & it is always wet. Parvathi (cursed by shiva) in the form of Akilandeswari found Jambu forest in Thiruvanaikoil to conduct her penance. She made a Lingam (Appu Lingam) out of water of river Cauvery (Ponni) under the Jambul or Jambu tree (Eugenia Jambolana, the rose-apple tree) and commenced her worship. Pleased with her devotion Siva taught her Siva Gnana. 'Malyavan' and 'Pushpadanta'. The Siva Ganas always quarreled with each other. 'Malyavan' cursed 'Pushpadanta' to become an elephant and the latter cursed the former to become a spider. The elephant and the spider came to Jambukeswaram and continued their worship of shiva. Daily the elephant immersed the lingam with water for ablutions & the spider constructed web over the Lingam to prevent dry leaves from dropping on it. The elephant tore the web and poured water to cleanse the lingam daily. The spider disliking this elephantine act became angry, crawled into the trunk and stung the elephant to death and was itself crushed in the trunk. Siva, in the form of Jambukeswara, gave both of them moksha. The elephant’s worship of Shiva here gave the place its name Thiru(Holy) Aanai(Elephant) Kaa or Kaadu(Forest) or became 'Thiruvanaikaval' and 'Thiruvanaikoil'. The spider was born as King Kochengan Chola (kotchengannan cholan meaning red-eyed king)( Red eyed for delay in birth, for the auspicious moment) in order to atone for his sin of killing the elephant. Remembering his enmity with the elephant in his previous birth, he built the entrance to the Siva Sannidhi(sanctorum) so small, that even a baby elephant cannot enter. The entrance to the sanctum of is only 4 foot high and 2.5 foot wide. After becoming the king, he built the temple for Siva and Goddess Akilandeswari in the name of Aanaikka (elephant protected) later it became to Thiruvanaikoil. There are five enclosures or praharams inside the temple. The fourth precinct contains a hall with 796 pillars and a small tank fed by perpetual springs. The sculptures and pillars are intrinsically carved across the temple.The sanctum has the smallest entrance possible to prevent an elephant entering it. The Mukha Mantapa, containing four-pillars and houses a bronze idol of Nandi. The deity is viewed through a stone window which has nine viewing apertures, believed to represent the Navagraha. Jambukeshwar and Akilandeshwari are installed opposite to each other & represent the Guru and Shishya relationship, as Shiva taught Parvathi Shiva Gnana here & hence there is no Thiru Kalyanam (marriage) conducted in this temple. Things to See : 1.Lord Jambulingeshwar ( Water Lingam). 2.Akilandeshwari ( Opp Shiva’s sanctum). 3. Double storied Theertham(Pond) & perennial spring. 4. Subshrines including Prasanna Ganapathy. 5.796 Pillared hall. 6. Bronze Nandi. 7.Painting of Shreechakra & Parvathi praying to shiva under the Jambu Tree. 8. Palli (Lizard) on the outer prahara. 9.

Spider & Elephant worshipping shiva.Jambukeswarar Temple, Thiruvanaikaval is a famous Shiva temple in Tiruchirapalli district, in the state of Tamil Nadu, India.

One amongst Panchalingas in India. #Jambukeswer Temple is one of the five temples dedicated to Lord Shiva as the manifestation of the five elements. This temple represents the element of water, and is also known as the "Jala Lingam". Here, Lingam is surrounded by the water so name came as Jala Lingam. It is located near Srirangam, a town famous for its Sri Ranganathaswamy Temple, which is dedicated to Lord Vishnu. In this temple, we must visit Akhilandeswari, who consort of Lord Shiva. In this temple we see Cows and Elephants. These very good attractions to the temple. We can walk upto the temple from Srirangam railway station. Very less trains available from Tiruchirapalli to Srirangam. Or we can pick any private vehicle.

One of the panchabhuta lingas.. Excellent temple with divine bliss..Amman and jambukeswara linga great feel. Absolute pleasure to see monuments architecture idols big and very nicely built more than 1000 years ago.. strange thing is fee local people don't know about it.. And if you travel here Srirangam Ranganatha temple just 2.5 km can be covered vice versa.

This is a Famous Shiva (Jambukeshwarar) temple. Shiva with goddess Akilandeshwari (Parvathi). This temple is represented the element of water . This temple was built by the one of the Cholas. Very Happy to be here for the first time and I loved this temple so much. This temple was bigger and very peaceful place. Temple Architecture was so beautiful. Sculptures are so beautiful and unique that they can never have been seen before I loved the art of this place.

Peaceful and amazing. One of the five temples of god shiva representing 5 elements of nature, here the water element. There is an elephant in this temple premises which is one of the most beautiful and graceful I have ever seen, mesmerising. The divine goddess here is Akhilandeswari, important place of shakti worship in tamilnadu along with kamakshi, meenakshi.

Excellent temple, I'm not satisfied for this visit. I want visit again and to spend more time, the inside sculpture is so attractive and marvelous. Pilllers design is excellent.🙏🙏🙏Important place, don't miss to visit.

Tieubanaikovil Jamukeshwara Temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva and also one of Pancha Bhootha Linga which is made of Water by Parvathi. You will also find Akilandeshwari (Parvathi) Sannidhi in the same campus. Darshan take time as one needs to bow down and visit Linga in a 4 feet small mandapam inside garbhagudi. Plan your visit accordingly. Very closer to Srirangam main temple, u can hire a auto.

One of the known and popular temples around. The temple was quite open and airy, We entered through the east gate which is not quite known to outsiders happened upon it luckily through gmaps 😁. This temple is scenic and devotional, which made it a great visit. 🙂

Just divine!!! One of the panchabootha sthalams where the lingam resides on a bed of water. The sanctum Santorum is so small that only 10-15 people can enter at a time. But darshan is awesome and the priest explains stala purana and shows the water bed under linga, on request. Temple architecture speaks for itself. Makes us wonder about the people who were able to erect such fine pieces of art 1000 years back!!! Don't miss it, if you visit Trichy.

Most Powerful Divine place Sri Thiruvanaikoil or Thiruvanaikaval, of Trichy, holds great importance because of its famous Jambukeswarar Temple. The temple holds a sacred place in the hearts of the Shiva Devotees across the world. The temple is considered one among the five major Shiva Temples, regarded as Panchabhoota Sthala, representing elements of water. The construction of the temple is thought to be about 1800 years ago by Kochengon, one of the Early Cholas of the city. The temple worships Lord Shiva or Shiva Lingam in the form of Appu Lingam (water lingam). The attraction of the temple is the underground water stream in the sanctum of Lord Jambukeshwara with water coming out of it continuously. The temple also worships Goddess Parvati in the form of- Devi Akilandeswari Amman. People say many stories about the importance and the history of the place. Many regional stories are depicting the gratefulness of the god and his blessings upon his devotees. The architecture of the temple is complex, with 5 enclosures. Festivals- The temple commences Panguni Brahmmotsavam in the months of March-April and Aadi Pooram in the months of July-August every year. These festivals see thousands of Shiva devotees from across the country.

Being one of panchabhuta (water) temple and built by Kochenketcha chola king about 2500 years ago, this temple is yet another chola time marvel. Gigantic walls, intricate architecture and on top of all, motherly Akilandeswari and the Adiyogi Sambukeswarar grace this place with divine vibes. Throughout all these years, continuous presence of water in sanctum sanctoram (karuvarai) makes this place even more special !!

Recently visited this place. Someone recommended to be there for the 5.30 am pooja. Highlights Serene Magnificent The main deity, Shiva is located in a small, below ground level (not exactly sure), shrine, which is interesting The goddess has her own temple within the temple and her temple is very pretty too Attire Modest attire - the temple authorities are not restrictive, but it’s best to be modest Loose pants, Half sleeve shirts, salwar and saris for ladies

The temple Dedicated to Lord Shiva and is included one among the Panch Bhota Sthal with the Lingam representing water out of the five elements. This temple is one of a important temple in Trichy located in the island of Srirangam. This temple shows the finest artecture of Dravidian style. The construction is so amazing and unique specially the internal pillars. The internal premises consist of many shrines of Lord shiva lingam and other Gods like Ganesh ji, Kartekayan ji and Nava Grah Devtas.

A must visit temple. It's a huge temple. A very peaceful and beautiful place. Calm and clean. Easily one can spend 3-4 hours in this temple. Just loved this place

Thirunaikovil temple is a temple where the people life inside. There is a town and streets are new to see for the tourists. Mostly not so crowded. Peaceful temple to experience the divine feeling. Interesting place to visit in Trichy. U can witness the art of sculptures.

Vibrant temple, we literally felt the vibration when we visited.. Infact we felt very tired after visiting this temple.. This is Shiva temple representing one of the five elements " Water". Really amazed by the architecture done in those days which is mind blowing..

The slightly smaller temple in Trichy compared to Srirangam, this place also feels living (though less hurried) compared to the main temple. there are lots of courtyards and sub temples to walk and wander around. Shoe storage is available (at your own risk!) though bag storage isn't.

The temple was built around 11th to 12th century and built by Kocengannan, one of the Earlychola Kings.The temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva. The temple consists of five concentric walls which are a marvel of the architectural heritage of India.In this temple Goddess Parvathi in the form of Sri Akilandeswari worshiped Lord Shiva in the Jambu forest (Thiruvanaikoil) as part of her penance. The temple priest performs Pooja for the Lord Siva in female attire. Thiru Kalyanam will not be performed here as Goddess appeared here in the form of a student while Lord Siva as Guru. Akhilandeswary Amman temple inside this premises is a must visit. It is said that Adisankaracharya added Ear Rings for the Goddess to bring Sowmya Roopa.One can pay attention to the ears of the idol while worshipping. Dont miss out on sweet prasad made of jaggery and while you come out after the darsan.

Temple is open till 1 pm when we went. has free slipper stand. I do not recommend Ola since drivers charge extra on top of original price. Temple is very big to cover all places and is a must visit during Trichy trip. Temple has free darshan as well 10,25,50 rs tickets just to skip big queue. Water and toilet facility available. Temple elephant seen around Amman Santhi. Blessings given only if amount is given made commercial.Prasadam sold taste good.

One of the most interesting temples with fascinating structures in it. Definitely worth a visit and the spiritual aspect of this place intensifies as near as you get to the main Garbha Gudi. There’s wheelchair accessibility as well for this vast expanse of space. The pillars are all interesting when looked upon closer inspection.

Majestic temple. Lord jambukeshwara here is situated in a little deep place. Once kaveri flows till it's maximum.lord shiv's sanctorum here gets submerged in water.. A must visit temple for the amazing designs and architectural masterpiece

One of the five Panchabhoota Lingas, Sri Jambukeshwarar in Trichy represents water. Huge temple with an underground moolasthanam, and the positive energy in and around the place is unparalleled.

Good place where you get complete divine feel. Best piece of architecture and well maintained temple. You need to go down to worship Lord shiva ( like inside a tunnel), where only 8 people are allowed at a time. Had a very good feel and loved this temple visit. Amman sannadhi was closed for alangaram around 11am and they said it will take half an hour. Since we had to go other temples, we left.

Wowww . Very old temple. Great history behind this. One of the pancha sthalam of lord Shiva. This temple represents lord Shiva in the form of water. Neatly maintained, very good place for meditation. Devotees should know the history, greatness of our lineage. Help to maintain the scantity and preserve and spread the greatness of our culture.

This is one of the Panch Tatva Sthalam dedicated for Water. Amazing architecture and equally well maintained. I have visited this place few times and I can feel the Spirituality and its Vibes in and around the temple. It's well connected by road from Chennai and couple of hours drive so far. Parking can also be managed with hardly any efforts. They offer Paid Prasadam as well to the devotees who wants to eat within the temple premises. Only thing what can be improved is to have a English Literature about the Temple and the overall significance of the God. Must visit place. I feel contented every time after getting blessing of the Lord Jambukeshwarar... Om Namah Shivay...

One of the biggest temple in this city. Here largest in space when look around within the it’s takes more than 2hrs to see all the places in this temple in peace manner when temple is free. Jambukeshwara (lord shiva) and Akilandeswari (pravati) is the main God’s . One of the main special in the temple is jambukeshwara is present under the ground level pillars and statues are ancient. Beautiful statues are here😊 Agriculture also done here 😊such a peaceful place

The Jambukeswarar Temple is about 1800 years old, situatedin Trichy, Tamilnadu. It's a wonderful temple, with a huge complex, spacious and beautiful. The main temple has about 800 pillars. Words cannot describe its beauty. Best part of the temple is that it's less crowded and one can peacefully have darshan and walk around. It would be nice to have a guide to visit the whole temple. As per tradition one must visit Goddess Akhilandeshwari first, then visit God Jambukeswarar.

During our recent trip to Tiruchi, We had the good opportunities to worship Lord Jambukeshwarar and Goddess Akhilandeswari at Thiruvanaikaval Temple. This temple is associated with one of the five elements water. The base of the lingam is always in water, even during peak Summer there is dampness associated with the Vasthram around the lingam. Goddess Akhilandeswari a powerful deity who fulfills all the wishes of the devotees. The much discussed figure of Shiva attached to Bhrama and Vishnu at a particular angle , depicted on one of the pillars is seen as a water molecule similar to its bond angle. The elephant in the temple is called Akhila. Temple located at a distance of 2.7 Kms from Srirangam. Timings 6 am to 1 pm and 3 pm to 8 pm , Monday to Thursday. 6 am to 8?pm on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Special ticket of Rs 10 and Rs25 for darshan of the Jambukeshwarar.

A nice religious place for Jaltatwa.. a beautiful story of Parwati mata doing Tapa at this place. Also a rishi called Jambuk rushi was here. From Nov to Jan the wTer flows near the Shivlinga in the basement.

It is one of the five major Shiva temples of Tamil Nadu as Lord Shiva persist in form of Jambukeswarar swamy. It is a beautiful temple with lot of peace and solace existing. Art work of sculptor is tremendous and Vastu have been corrected from time to time. * Temple represents element of water and sanctum of Jambukeswarar has an underground stream. All the five prime elements of nature reside here-Pancha Bhoota Sthalam. * It is one of the 275 Paadal Petra Sthalams. * Akilandeswari temple also exist here in form of goddess Parvati. * The legend is that Shiva directed Parvati to go to earth from Kailasam to do penance. She chose Jambu forest(Thiruvanai koil) to conduct penance. At last, Shiva gave darshana to Akilandeswari and taught her Shiva gnana and she took Upadesha facing east of Shiva. It is another astonishing story that spider and elephant were protecting Lingam. * Massive outer wall covering 5th precinct known as Vibudi Prakaar stretches over long distance, 2 ft thick, 25 ft height, two gopuras, sthala vriksham Or holy tree in white Jambuka on South eastern wall of sanctum.

Ancient Temple and one among the pancha Bootha Sthalam and The temple history is quite interesting. there is 1000 pillar mandapam here which has beautiful carvings but remains closed most of the time! A must visit temple!

Now temple is all days opened from 18 of October 2021 timings will be from 5.30 to 12 and 4.30 to 8.30pm

The Chola's Masterpiece: Building Beyond Belief !! As I sit in the temple, marveling at the walls and sculptures, my mind drifts to the Chola period. I can't help but wonder about the incredible craftsmanship and dedication of the Cholas who built this place. Imagining them here at that time, creating these intricate details, is truly fascinating. The Thiruvanaikovil Arulmigu Jambukeswarar Akilandeswari temple is an exquisite and spiritually vibrant site located in Thiruvanaikoil, Tamil Nadu, India. As one of the Pancha Bhoota Stalas dedicated to Lord Shiva, this temple holds immense historical, architectural, and religious significance. Upon entering the temple complex, one is greeted by its stunning architecture adorned with intricate carvings and sculptures. The sprawling temple premises house various halls, shrines, and intricately designed corridors that showcase the rich cultural heritage of the region. The sanctum sanctorum of the temple is dedicated to Lord Jambukeswarar, representing the element of water, while the goddess Akilandeswari's shrine symbolizes the element of earth. This unique aspect of the temple, honoring the five elements of nature, adds a profound layer of spirituality to the experience. I was drawn not only by the architectural beauty but also by the spiritual aura that envelops the temple. The rhythmic chants, the fragrance of incense, and the mesmerizing rituals create an atmosphere that facilitates deep introspection and reverence. The temple's festival calendar is vibrant and lively, with numerous celebrations and rituals throughout the year. The annual Panguni Brahmmotsavam and Aadi Pooram festivals are especially significant, attracting devotees from far and wide to participate in the festivities and seek the blessings of the deities. What makes the Thiruvanaikovil temple truly special is its amalgamation of history, spirituality, and architectural grandeur. Whether one seeks solace, cultural enrichment, or simply marvels at the craftsmanship of ancient artisans, this temple stands as a testament to the rich heritage of India and its deep-rooted religious traditions. NOTE: 1) The temple ceremonies start at 6:00 am every morning. Pantuality matters here. 2) Both Lord Shiva and Agilandeshwari are worshipped at the same time, and during this ritual, the sanctum doors are closed. 3) Special tickets, costing around 100 rupees, offer a more in-depth experience, and it's best not to pay more than that. 4) One of the temple's special traditions is an elephant carrying water for the daily ceremony. This ritual has been happening for generations, adding a timeless charm to the temple's customs. 5) Maha Varahi Amman rituals are also famous here.

The temple's construction dates back to 2nd Century CE by Kochenga Chola and later renovated by Pandya, Hoysala, Nayak Kings.There are lot of inscriptions from various Chola kings of 11th - 12th century indicating grants to the temple. The Siva linga here is a syambu (natural) linga. Its as big as an ant hill. Worshippers have to bent low to enter and offer prayers. Only Hindus are allowed. The afternoon pooja was beautiful.

One of the grandest and beautiful Shiva temples in the country, representing one of the pancha boothas - water. The temple is located in Thiruvanaikaval near Srirangam ( famous for Sri Ranganatha Swamy temple) between two rivers - Kaveri and Kollidam. There are three grand pragarams. The Lord Shiva Linga is in a small sanctum below ground level with only a narrow path both for entry and exit. Water is continuously emerging from the base of inner sanctum. Devi Shri Akilandeswari Amman in a separate sannidhi. The temple has well maintained nandavanam inside. Lot of peacocks around.

Beautiful architecture. We saw 2 big elephants inside. This is one of the Panch Bhoota temple, Water element. The main garbha graha is very dark, small & stuffy. There is a small size Linga inside.

Very big temple. Neat and tiny atmosphere. You can have peace here.
