मञ्जुलापुरम्

Since importance is given to Nachiyaar in this temple, it is called Nachiyaar Koyil.

The moolavar here is Tirunaraiyur Nambi also known as Vasudevar depicted in the Kalyana kolam with Vanchulavalli Thayar in the sanctum. The Theertham is Manimuktha pushkarini and the Vimanam Srinivasa Hema Vimanam.

Legend has it that Lakshmi was born as Vanchulavalli at the foot of a Vanchula tree to Medhavi Munivar. Vishnu is believed to have manifested himself in the Pancha Vyuha forms and married Vanchulavalli. In the sanctum one finds the sculptures of the deities - Sankarshana in the east, Pradyumna in the south, Anirudha in the west, Purushottaman in the north and Vasudeva in the center. There is no separate shrine for Thayar. There are shrines for Yoga Narasimhar, Ramar, Hanuman and Chakrapani.

There is a special shrine dedicated to Kal Garudan. Garudan is seen with nine serpents and is believed to have the powers to remove the Navagraha Dosham. The speciality of the Kal Garudan is that the mount is said to increase exponentially in size as it is carried out of the sanctum with the Utsava moorthi seated on, and decrease the same way while being brought back inside the temple. It is found only 4 people are needed to carry it initially and as it is carried out of the temple, 64 people are required to carry it thereon. During the festival Nachiyaar leads the procession on Hamsa Vahanam.The Margazhi brahmhotsavam is of great significance here.
