    This is a famous temple located in Perur to the west of Coimbatore. It is dedicated to Lord Shiva and was built by Karikaala Chozhan, a famous Chola king. The history of the temple can be dated back to 1,500 years and the presiding deity is said to have self-emerged. The temple has a beautiful architecture with many spirals and halls. The main draw is the golden statue of Lord Nataraja (a form of Lord Shiva). Several pillars boast intricate carvings depicting the manifestations of the god. The ceiling is equally arresting and has been ornamented with carvings of a series of chain links with a lotus at the centre. The temple has also been patronised by poets like Kachiappa Munivar and Arunagiri Nathar. The temple was built by king Karikala Chola in 2nd century CE, thus making this one of the oldest temple in the state and even India. During the rule of Raja Raja Chola I, 'Artha Mahal' and 'Maha Mahal' were constructed.Additional offerings from the Chola king were made on a regular basis and were noted on the walls of the temple. History reveals that the great poet Sundarar sung the devotional 'Devaram' song in this temple by the 7th century CE. But oddly, while having seven of the 276 temples, Perur Pateeswarar Temple does not appear on the list of Kongu Nadu Padal petra sthalams. From the 14th to 17th centuries, the kings from different dynasties like Hosala dynasty, Vijanagara Empire, Nayakkar Kings have contributed immense donations for the maintenance of this temple. The famous 'Kanaga Sabhai' was built around the 17th century, by Azhagathiri Nayakkar of Madurai. By 18th century CE, the primary deities were renovated and also a Mahal for the 63 Nayanmaars were raised. By the 20th century, the Kalyana Mahal and the front Mahal were constructed, and the tower was renovated as well. This temple has several gopurams and halls, famous of which is, 'Kanaka Sabha', the one with the golden statue of Nataraja. The ceiling is covered in a network of stone chains, and the pillars are decorated with carvings of Shiva in his different forms. There is a Patti Vinayagar shrine, dedicated to Ganesha. The Arasambalavanar Shrine dedicated to Shiva at the spot where Shiva is believed to have performed his Thandav under a peepul tree. There are also statues of Gajasamhara, Virabhadra, Bikshadana, Oordhva Thandava, Saraswati with Veena. The sacred trees associated with temple are the palm and tamarind trees, called Irava Panai and Pirava Puli.

  • 4/5 Kalyan S. 6 months ago on Google • 639 reviews
    ஆங்கிலத்தில் எழுதுவதற்கு மன்னிக்கவும். dt 27 - 07 - 23 After we checked in the hotel, we had a very short nap, then got up freshened up, had a cup of tea and took a wonderful bus journey to Masani Amman temple, but as we were boarding the bus in pollachi bus stand the bus driver stopped us from going to the temple, saying the temple is closed for the day since there has been a death in the surrounding area. So we changed our plans and decided to visit this temple. It was a struggle to reach this temple, from ukkadam bus stop, finally with no other go and time running out, we decided to take an auto to reach the temple. We have visited this temple some 25 years back i guess and we were so happy to visit it again. Still i remember from that visit as to how surprised i was to see the cow standing behind the shiva lingam, and was so happy to have that same feeling and wonderful aarthi darshan again of the lord. This time we were not in a rush rush mode, we took our time and went around slowly, recited our sivapuranam, enjoyed the wonderful architecture of the temple. Was surprised to know there is a connect between this temple and saint sundaramurthy nayanar. before we finish our small review, want to add a small thevaram song. வழுவாள் பெருமான் கழல்வாழ் கவெனா எழுவாள் நினைவாள் இரவும் பகலும் மழுவா ளுடையாய் மருகற் பெருமான் தொழுவா ளிவளைத் துயராக் கினையே.

    (Translated by Google) History of the temple 🕉️ Arulmigu Pattiswarar Temple On the head of the Shiva lingam, the hoof scar of the Kamadenu calf can still be seen. Images of eight directional guards are located on the sanctuary plane. Amman Pachainayaki Sannathi Vimanam is located in a square. There is another aspiring manonmani shrine. In the form of Somaskanda, Lord Murugan bestows blessings between Lord Shiva and Goddess. Since it is a place of salvation, the dog-free sage Bhairav ​​bestows blessings here. Outside the Amman Sanctuary, Varadaraja Perumal and the great Anjaneyars made of wood in Prakaram bless. The seedling planting festival is special here as it is the place where the Lord was born and raised in a downtrodden caste. In front of the temple there is a fig tree called Piravapuli. Its seeds do not germinate anywhere. It means that those who visit this place are no longer born. Adisankar prays here for the salvation of his mother. The palm tree here is called Iravappanai. Darshan here means that annihilation is available. It is said that worshiping Pattivinayaka on the banks of the Noyyal River will bring about the thought that the bones of the dead will turn to ashes in a few days if they are thrown into the river. The five-letter mantra of Lord Namasivaya is chanted in the ears of the dead here, so that the people here are on the verge of death. Highlights: ★ On the head of the Shiva lingam, the hoof scar of the Kamadenu calf can still be seen. In front of the temple there is a fig tree called 'Piravapuli'. Its seeds do not germinate anywhere. Even the dung in the area does not produce worms.

    Very old and ancient temple in Coimbatore, located in a peaceful locality, must visit place in Coimbatore. Several small shops and eateries ate present around the temple. There's lot of open space around temple praharam, may be very hot in noon and evening timings. You may plan your visit before it's too sunny or during evening hours just around sunset to enjoy all the sculptures and beauty of idols in the temple.

    The Iyer said the temple was built 1200 years back by Raja Raja chola. It is very well maintained and artistically awesome. Each and every pillar had some story to tell. Absolute Marvel of ancient architecture. Words are less to describe this beauty. It has sufficient parking space and police are always around for security. Many beggars are found at the entrance. Don't miss to sit and observe every pillar and wall and sculpture if you are at this temple.

  • 5/5 Devesh P. 2 years ago on Google
    It is one of the oldest Hindu temples 🛕in Coimbatore and one of its most famous landmarks. I remember the very first time I went to this temple some 20 years back and I've been going here on and off with my family relatives alike. A good place for an evening darshan to go with your family and relatives. A clam place where you can meditate and find inner peace and be with yourself and collect your thoughts and sit in solace. It is a grand temple dedicated to Shiva located at Perur, in the western part of Coimbatore, Tamilnadu. The pillars inside the temple depict Tamil sculptors' architectural prowess. There is wheelchair ♿ accessible parking and entrance. Your vehicles 🚗🚙🏍️🛵🛴🚲🏎️ have to be parked 🅿️ outside in the sun 🌟⭐🌝☀️ and rain ⛈️🌦️🌧️🌨️🌩️ as there is no covered parking area near the temple. There is, of course, ample parking 🅿️ space near the temple. It is clearly visible from inside your vehicle and is on the side on the main road. There isn't any likelihood that you would miss the temple as it is at the main junction from where you will be going onwards to other places.

    A must visit temple during your Coimbatore trip. Spend sometime reminiscing the sheer architectural beauty of this ancient temple. 🚗 parking is available in front of the temple, other option is street side parking. Carvings on the stone walls of the temple are a treat for your 👀. Plan to spend atleast an hour when you're visiting

    To know the proper history of this Perur Patteeswarar temple. It is one of the most ancient temples in India. It was not built by cheras who were actually dominating this region. But was built by the great Karikaala Cholan in the 2nd Century. It is believed that the Korakkar siddhaa who is one among the 18 siddhas meditated here on Lord muruga. What's more special here is, it is the only place where Lord Muruga is present facing West side. And hence it is so special for devotees who pray for marriage and child. And of course it is one of the most ancient and important temples of Lord Shiva. To all the locals out there who haven't visited here you are missing great ancient architecture and sculptures. And also who visit coimbatore don't forget to keep this temple in your checklist.

    Awesome temple for peace 🕊️ of mind 😊 , This temple contains extraordinary sculptures ✨👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇 History of this temple is given below 👇 This Sanctum – sanctourm of this Temple was built by Karikala Chola in the early Christian Era. In the ninth century, Saint Sunfarar vistied the temple and immortalised it in his Thevaram. In the Kongu Chola Period (11th to 13th centuries Ardha Mandapa and Mahamandapa were built and used for inscribing the details about the numerous gifts made to the temple. From 14th to 17th centuries, the Hoysala, Vijayanagar and Nayaka kings gave endowments. The famous Kanaka Sabhai was built by Alagadri Nayak of Madurai in the 17th century. Tippu Sultan of Mysore attached half of the Inams of the temple in the 18th century. Later on, the East India Company restored it to the temple. The Swami and Amman Temples were renovated in the Middle of the 18th century and later on the Mantap of 63 Saints was built. In the 20th century, the Kalyana Mantapam and the front Mantapam were built and the tower was repaired. Historically, the surroundings of Perur date back to the Roman period as a “Treasure Trove” of Roman coins was discovered here Sculpture and Archaeological : The famous Kanaka Sabhai presents a unique collection of Stone sculture carvings, the like of which is not found elsewhere. Its two rows of ten big pillars have exquisite carvings of manifestations of siva. Its terraced roof has a series of stone-chains with a numerously pettalled lotus at the centre. The smaller pillars have a large number of mythological carvings. The tank is a fine piece of symmetrical steps with 16 angles. The Cars have fine wooden carvings which attract the cupidity of even foreigners. The idols excel the other temples in beauty. Even the small shrines surrounding the main temple are very ancient inscriptions of high value

    One of the oldest temples in coimbatore. There is a special darshan for a nominal charge of 20₹ per person and would suggest to opt for it because we can directly go inside. We reached the temple at around 11am and got an opportunity to witness the abhishegm. Sculpture in Nataraj temple is must visit. Paid prasadam like Laddu, Vadia, sakarai Pongal, Adhirasam are available.

    It's nice temple but maintenance not upto to the mark, there is rude behaviour inside the temple. It should have be cleanly maintained. There are many areas it has to be improved. No quality in the food items which is sold inside the hotel premises. It's a very old and famous temple in Coimbatore and government should take more steps to maintain it much better and doing so will pull us more tourists which in turn is an revenue the government only. We also have to help them in maintaining the cleanliness of the place

    This is supposed to be a 2nd century temple. However, there was no guide and no signage indicating the age or history of the various temples in the complex or the significance of them. Prasadam was also not available but maybe it is so because we just got out of COVID restrictions. The paintings on the ceilings esp on the right hall are good. However, I am not sure how authentic these colors are to the history of temple. Parking looks adequate. The car/god's chariot is also a good attraction

    One of the famous temples in Coimbatore. Located in a place called Perur with lots of buses plying from Coimbatore Gandhipuram. One can visit with family. Not much eatables available with a few shops selling snacks. No Stay option also. Better stay in Coimbatore and visit. If you are coming by bus, my suggestion is to take local town bus instead of the one going to Isha center as it sometimes doesn't stop due to much crowd giving importance to the newly created adhi yogi. Free Footwear stand is there in the entrance of the temple, but many people just leave it on the road itself.

    Very old Sivan Temple. Locals come here to do after death rituals of their relatives and take a bath in the Noyyal River and thereafter visit the temple. This temple is considered a sacred place. Lord Patteswarar and Lordess Pachai Nayaki amman are the titles of God. Open between 6 am and 1 pm and from 4 pm to 8.30 pm. Free darshan and Rs.20 special/quick darshan are there. Will get an ancient atmosphere inside the temple. The design and architecture will definitely be enthused. There is a Thaer/car outside the temple. The temple has a large premise, and hence, outside noise will not come. Lots of shops are there. Can buy all pooja related items easily. There is no water flowing in Noyyal River as of now.

The temple showcases remarkable South Indian architecture, with intricate carvings, grand entrances, and towering gopurams (temple towers). The sculptures depict various mythological stories and aspects of Hinduism.

    A divine beauty of architecture where immense positive vibes can be felt. It very ancient temple almost from Chola dynasty dedicated to Lord Shiva, Maa Parvati, Lord Ganesha and Kartikeya, in their Tamil avatars. It's under renovation when I visited. Better to visit in early morning or evenings before 7pm otherwise most of idols will get covered. Immensely beautiful stone engraved paintings and different postures of nataraja can be seen. A must visit place for Hindus and archaeology lovers

    (Translated by Google) Perur, near the Noyyal River, is 7 km from Coimbatore in Tamil Nadu. It is famous for its Pattiswaraswami temple dedicated to Shiva. The temple is said to date back to the Chola period and is attributed to Karikala Chola (2nd century AD), but most of it was completed in the following centuries. He is one of the Tandavasthalas or Dancehalls of Shiva and has a gold plated statue of Shiva as Nataraja, the Lord of dance. (Original) Perur, près de la rivière Noyyal, est à 7 km de Coimbatore au Tamil Nadu. Il est célèbre pour son temple Pattiswaraswami dédié à Shiva. On dit que le temple date à l'origine de la période Chola et est attribué à Karikala Chola (2e siècle après JC), mais la majeure partie a été achevée au cours des siècles suivants. C'est l'un des Tandavasthalas ou Dancehalls de Shiva et a une statue plaquée or de Shiva comme Nataraja, le Seigneur de la danse.

    The temple is easy to reach from Gandhipuram bus stand. Travel time of about 40 min by bus on Sunday. Parking for 4 wheelers may not be easy on holidays. The temple from the exterior looks like a recent construct. Once inside you will realize that it is much much older. The sculptures and carvings on the pillars are striking to say the least! Though some may be more recent they can easily be compared to other more popular temples. Movement to the sanctum is slow due to the way the queues are formed. Expect a wait of fifteen to twenty minutes to see the deity. And do keep your footwear in the designated place to avoid loss.

    This ancient temple was built by king Karikala Chola in 2nd Century, thus making this one of the oldest temple in the state. During the rule of Raja Raja Chola I, 'Artha Mahal' and 'Maha Mahal' were constructed. In addition to this, there were regular donations from the Chola king, which were documented on the temple walls. History reveals that the great poet Sundarar sung the devotional 'Devaram' song in this temple by the 7th Century. Nonetheless, strangely Perur Pateeswarar Temple does not make it to the list of Kongu Nadu Padal petra sthalams, which otherwise has seven of the 276 temples. From the 14th to 17th Centuries, the kings from different dynasties like Hosala dynasty, Vijanagara Empire, Nayakkar Kings have contributed immense donations for the maintenance of this temple. The famous 'Kanaga Sabhai' was built around the 17th century, by Azhagathiri Nayakkar of Madurai. By the 18th Century AD, the primary deities were renovated and also a Mahal for the 63 Nayanmaars were raised. By the 20th century, the Kalyana Mahal and the front Mahal were constructed, and the tower was renovated as well.

    Perur is an important Mukthi Sthalam (salvation temple) dedicated to Lord Shiva. It is located on the banks of the Noyaal river. History? It is an ancient temple from 11th century built by Karikala Chola. How to reach? Perur is well connected by road. It is about 6 to 8 kms from Coimbatore and is quite accessible through public transport. Temple Timings? This temple is open in the Morning, between 5:30 am to 1 pm and in the evening between 4 pm till 9 pm. Legendary ! - Lord Shiva has manifested himself as a Swayambhu lingam having foot marks made by divine calf while Kamadhenu was praying and offering milk to Siva linga from his udder milch. The playful calf steps on the Shiv linga, Kamadenu was asking for forgiveness, The supreme deity felt overwhelmed and blessed Kamadenu with Mukthi and the marks were still visible on Siva linga's forehead. - Lord Shiva also gave Anandha Thandava Darshan to Brahma, Vishnu, Adimoorkamman (Kali) & Kalavamuni. Foolowing that Natya kalai fest is organised on special day of every year. Auspicious days ! - Akshaya Thrithiyai - Vaikasi Visagam - Tamil New Year - Karthigai Deepam -Thai Poosam - Margazhi Thiruvathirai Interesting Facts ! - Irava Panai (Immortal Palm) For many years, the palm tree still stands young. This tree never dies. It is, said that incurable diseases could be cured, by crushing the bark of this palm tree and drinking the medicinal drink. It is the undead palm. - Piravaa Puli (No birthTamarind) The seeds of this tamarind tree do not germinate again. Many scientists from abroad have tried their best to replant the seeds. It did not sprout. - Unfermented Dung The dungs of sheep, cow and other cattle located in this Perur region and near the temple won’t get spoiled. Worms won’t form in it. - Human bones become stoned, If any people here die, the bones that are left after cremated can be thrown into the river, so that this soul may receive blessings. The bones that are left, in the river will soon get transformed into stones. - Puts his right ear upward when they die the miracle of death is still going on here. As the man or other living things dies in Perur, its right ear will be facing upward.

    An ancient temple in Coimbatore maintained neatly with Kasi Visvanathar, Bala Thandayudhapani, Varadaraja perumal & Goddess Pachainayagi temple inside Pattesvarar temple. Today visited for “Aarudhra Dharshan” which is cosmic dance of Lord Nataraja. Long queue, disorganized & chaos everywhere with no proper crowd management. May be temple didn’t anticipated the big crowd. Haphazardly parked vehicles in front of the main entrance. But inspite of all these man-made risks, the experience inside the temple is devine. A must visit place if you are visiting Coimbatore

    If you are in Coimbatore one must visit this very old Shiva temple. The temple is located around 10kms from the city center and is easily accessible by public transport. There are buses every 5 minutes from most places in the city. The temple dates back to the Roman period and has been sung in the Theveram of the great saint Sundarar. The highlight of the temple is that you will see a "Kamadhenu", the holy cow behind the Shiva lingam. It is said that the cow everyday shed milk on the lingam. The temple is very well maintained and has several shrines and one should see the dancing lord Natarajar as well. The temple is generally crowded and it is advisable to visit the temple during weekdays and avoid festival days. There is enough car parking in front of the temple. Mobile phones are allowed inside, but photography is not allowed. Visit the official website for pooja and temple timings. A peaceful and great dharshan is in the waiting.

    One of the oldest temple in India. Almost 2000 years old. Lord Shiva and Lordess Parvarty seen as Patishwarer and PachaiNayagi. Very Good vibe. Get 20₹ special ticket for closer access to sannidhi. Separate special tickets for Patishwarer and PachaiNayagi. Best ₹20 your will ever spend. ₹10 prasadam sold opposite to counter is very very tasty Archanai ticket and coconut breaking tickets needs to be bought at counter and they are very cheap as well.

    Patteeshwarar and Pachai Nayagi are Power Couple 💞 Peace is here !! A divine spot filled with strength and meaningful lessons is this temple.. To mention a few, 'The Urdhva Tandava Pose', which every woman of this contemporary world should know and understand ✨️ Also never forget to visit two more beautiful temples located just behind Patteeshwarar temple.. It's Angalamman Temple and Masaniamman Temple ❤️❤️ When you're genuine and you need justice in life, the Goddesses shower instant justice, love, care, support and courage to the devotees.. Honestly.. 😊🙏 They're powerful, gorgeous and lovely.. :) :) ..

    One of the ancient temples built by chola dynasty. It literally gives a good vibe while entering in, peace to mind & feels so pleasant to see those beautifully carved out pillars. On the way from Coimbatore to Isha foundation, bus stops exactly near the temple.

    Very detailed and about 2000 year old temple. Sculpture and construction is amazing. You will feel the positivity and religion move when you enter the temple. Elephant is also present there and , outside the temple a very huge rath is also present there. You can find shops to buy ornament and coconut too outside the temple.

    This place is a real surprise to me! When I entered this place, I remembered visiting a Lord Perumal temple nearby Karaikal in 2016. The entrance look same and they'd a 🦣 at the right side of the entrance. I was saying this to my friend and moving. Then the surprise happened (video attached). The little boy 🐘 is happily spending time in the pool. Don't know how to explain the moment, goosebumps 🥰 I forgot completely why I went there 😅 Then went to meet Lord Pattiswarar. He is so heavenly! Watching Natarajar and ammal is a great pleasure. The temple has Vinayagar, Murugar with Valli & Devanai and lot more god statues in it. We went on Friday, moderate crowd. The temple is old and have theer, a Kulam with it (Don't ask about the water). A decent parking area for both two and four wheelers. Since it is inside city has more shops nearby.
