Why to visit Vardharaja Perumal Temple

Lord Vishnu is honoured at the Varadharaja Perumal Temple, which is located in Kanchipuram, Tamil Nadu. It is considered extremely sacred. The Alwars, or poetic saints, are also said to have visited this temple. The temple complex is vast and was constructed during the reign of the Chola Kings as a labour of worship. As a result, it is also historically significant. Lord Vishnu devotees from all over the world come to Vishnu Kanchi to seek blessings, particularly during the 10-day Vaikasi Brahmmotsavam, Purattasi Navaratri, and Vaikunda Ekadasi. Everyone will be impressed by the temple complex's grand architecture and beautiful embellishments.

This temple boasts a one-of-a-kind wooden Lord Vishnu deity. The idol is encased in silver and submerged in water. Locals think that when the idol was completely submerged in water, the area received a lot of rain. The Vedanta Desika, Thirtha Prabandha Peyalvar, Bhoothathalvar, and various writings by Muthuswami and Tyagaraja Dikshitar in the 18th century all reference the temple and stories associated with it.
