The Nellaiappar Temple is Hindu Temple dedicated to the deity Shiva, located in Tirunelveli, a city in the South Indian state of Tamil Nadu. Shiva is worshipped as Nellaiappar (also called Venuvananathar) represented by the lingam and his consort Parvati is depicted as Kanthimathi Amman. The deity Vishnu is also worshipped here, having witnessed their wedding according to legend. Hence, this temple is regarded as an abhimana kshetram of Vaishnavism. The temple is located on the northern banks of Thamirabarani River in Tirunelveli district. We had visited during the weekend Sunday. There wasn't much crowd. Main Sanctum Nellaiappar is very powerful, you will feel positive vibes. And his consort called as Kanthimathi Amman. You get archanai ticket for 5/- bucks per person. For commuting to this temple if any one staying in hotel stays , I would suggest to go by Local bus. Here auto driver's charge around minimum 100-150 bucks depending on your stay location. Here the priest don't act rudely, very polite, we get ample time worship the God. They don't rush things in this temple. That's really good. The sculptures in this temple is just mind-blowing. Highly recommend Om Namah Shivaya🙏

It is one of the very big temples in Trunelveli. I really loved the art and architecture of this temple. The art was eye catching and very difficult to make it. I was really fascinated and amazed by our ancestors work. I would recommend people to come here and get pride in what our ancestors created for us!!!! The government should spend some money to fix some issues here and improve the cleanliness of the temple ❤️

It's an experience not just a temple. Wonderful architechture which can give you goosebumps. There are multiple entry gates. The temple has multiple layers with inner sanctum having the shiva murti.
