Vikramapandeeswarar Cholapuram

Vikramapandeeswarar Cholapuram is a large and beautiful east-facing temple. The outer prakaram is entered through a large gopuram without the upper tiered portion. Straight ahead is the entrance to the inner prakaram where the Sanctum Sanctorum of the main deity is present. On the south side of the outer Prakaram is the separate shrine of goddess Kuzhalvaimozhi Amman. The inner Prakaram is entered through a small doorway. A large open mandapam with beautiful pillars is before the Ardha mandapam and the sanctum sanctorum of the main deity. The sanctum is a beautiful large structure typical of Chola architecture. The outer walls are wonderfully carved and the idols are all beautiful. A small doorway on the south side leads to the goddess shrine in the outer prakaram.
