About the Temple & Location:

Pacchai VannarThis sthalam is situated near Railway station and is close towards Sri Kamakshi Amman temple in Big Kanchipuram.


It is said that both the Pacchai and Pavala Vannan perumal has to be worshipped, without leaving any one of them. Opposite to Pavala Vannar Sannadhi, 2 1/4 kms away is the Pacchai Vannar Sannadhi is situated in west direction. Inspite of the Mangalasasanam not done in Pacchai Vannar sannadhi, both these two temples are considered to be the single and has to be worshipped as a single Divya desam.
