History & tradition
Ninra Narayana Perumal Temple is at Thiruthangal, a neighbourhood of Sivakasi in Tamil Nadu. It is one of the 108 Divya Desams praised by the Alvar saints; Vishnu is worshipped here as Ninra Narayana, the standing Narayana, and Lakshmi as Arunakamala Mahadevi. The temple is built on a granite hill about 30 metres high and includes two rock-cut caves with inscriptions, two of them from the 8th century. Its present form is attributed to a Pandya king, Devendra Vallabha, with later additions by Pandya, Vijayanagara and Nayak rulers. Unusually, it has no rajagopuram.
