This temple is situated in between the hill temples, Tiruneermalai and Tirisoolam.  At the bottom of the hill are the sanctum of Siddhi Vinayagar, and Itumpan.  The Kaali here is called ‘Jeyamangalathanma Kaali’ because she remains peaceful and bestows victory and good welfare.  Special pooja is performed to her on the Full Moon Day.  On the Kanda Sashti day, Lord Muruga goes in procession on the elephant-carrier, after performing Soora Samhaaram (annihilation of the demon Soora).

Nataraaja with right leg lifted:  Sundareswarar temple is situated on the way to the hill temple.  Here Lord Siva appears under the ‘Ghajabrushta Vimaanam’ in the north-facing sanctum.  The entire image of Lord Siva is chiseled on the linga.  There is a sanctum to Goddess Meenakshi also.  Lord Nataraja here is in dancing posture with his left foot firmly fixed and right foot lifted.  He is installed so because it is the sanctum of Meenakshi-Sundareswarar.  The right foot of Lord Siva is considered to be Siva’s in the ‘Siva-Sakthi’ united aspect.  So, Lord Nataraja here is known as ‘Than Paadam Thookiya Natarajar’ meaning ‘Natarajar who lifted his own leg’.  He is given special abhishekam on the six days allotted to Nataraja worship.  A separate sanctum is available to Sarabeswarar.  Special pooja is performed and worshipped during the ‘Raghu Kaalam’ on Sundays.
