    Shri Vekkaliyamman temple in Uraiyur, Trichy is very revered Shakti temple. Well maintained and clean. The Amman in the sanctum has no roof, only a flat 'vetriver' (khus grass) cover overhead. Devotees write their prayer request on a paper and tie it, for Amman's blessings.

    Venkaliyamman Temple. Dedicated yo Goddess Vekkali, Kali matha. It’s a renowned shrine and dates back to Chola Period. A must visit temple . A visit to this shrine for mother Goddess blessings removes all your worries and paves way for your prosperity.

    Being at the temple was a very divine experience . The deity looks divine. The temple is well maintained though it's a bit cramped. It's usually a bit crowded on Fridays. The approach road to the temple is very narrow and a big challenge to your driving skills. Do have a darshan of this Devi who answers your prayers.

    Samayapuram is the northern boundary of the city of Trichy which is worshiped with ecstasy by devotees as the affectionate sister of Mariamman. Ithala Moolavarvekali Amman, the guardian deity, For 2000 years In the open field without a roof, the sky is the roof, the clouds are the Lord, the rain is the anointing, and the stars are the flowers. In earlier times in this area, by the mother Muddy According to the legend, Amman has been living without a roof till date, assuring himself that he will stay in the roofless place until all the people who have lost their homes and come to Vettaveli and take refuge with him get a house. This Vekkali temple is the 'Pattinik Kotham' built for Kannagi by Perunalikli, the son of Nedungilli, as mentioned in Silappathikaram. Also, Kannaki's There is also a claim that the form itself is this Vekkali Amman. In roofless goddess temples, the goddess is usually seated with her left leg folded and her right leg resting on the asura. However, this goddess Vekkali has folded her right leg and placed her left leg on the monster. Rare to see It is a spectacle. Thangather Ambigai Beauty, Utsavar Ambigai Beautiful beauty. Devotees bring their prayers to the attention of the Goddess through 'Prayer Slips' and Ambika fulfills their reasonable wishes. Flower sprinkling ceremony at Panguni, Sarvasandi Homam five days festival at Chitri, Mango abhisheka festival at Vaikasi, every month. Devotees believe that by worshiping Goddess Vekkali, which is full of festivals throughout the year, the evils around us will be destroyed and good will be born.

    Amman here is so powerful.. She has asked her devotees to not to construct viman over her sanctum Sanctorum. Here there is a unshakable belief that if we write our wishes in a paper given by the temple our wishes will get fulfilled by vekkaliamman..

    Nice temple. Will be crowded on Tuesday's and Fridays. Will revoked to go early in the morning or evening rather than at peak hours. On other days, it's quiet normal. People write their wishes in paper and your that to TRISULAM at the north entrance gate.

    One of the must visit temples in Tiruchirapalli. Located in Worayur area. The godess is very powerful and the temple is open throughout the day and closes by 9 pm. Car parking can be arranged nearby. Godess is sitting in open and roof above which is very special. Lot of miracles related to this temple you can experience it only you visit..

    A power full temple to worship, you can write your prayers in the prathana paper available in the Thiru koil and submit your prayers to Goddess vekkaliamman, by tying the paper on the holy tree, the sane eswar also powerful you can pray to him and get good things.

  • 5/5 Sankar G. 2 months ago on Google • 4 reviews New
    Such a divine place. Every year I visit this temple for one time to get resolved all of my issues. Visiting once a year is enough for solving all my problems then see the most positivity we will get from this temple. Vekkaliyamma is more powerful god and the temple is built with full of positive vibes. I don’t have words to express how the vibes work inside the temple but we can feel that. Once visiting this temple will heal all our problems and the most important thing is belief. Without believing the god then there is no use in going to temple or any other divine places.

    One of the powerful Amman temple around Trichy City, anyone from the surrounding know this place. Very well maintained, but as of 01 Dec 2021, there was some maintenance works going for mulavar Goddess. So pilgrimages wouldn't be able to have a darshan of Shri Vekkai Amman for some weeks.

    This Amman is very powerful and this amman special is amman karu aarai doesn't have the roofing. But other areas of this temple covered under roof. currently this temple under renovation work was already started and it may complete in next 2 - 3 months sayings of local devotees and office staffs. Now, vekkaliamman moolavar (main house) closed and uttsavar amman seelai made of five metals and doing of all worship activities for uttsavar Amman for next 2 - 3 month's. uttsavar mamdapam available in behind of moolavar santhi right side.
