Emperumanar Thirukurungudi

Emperumanar Thirukurungudi is a sub shrine of the main Thirukurungudi Temple of Lord Nindra Nambi. It is located on a small rock island in the middle of the Nambi River and reached through a walkable bridge. The temple, the river, and the surroundings are very beautiful and ideal to spend time peacefully. The single prakaram housing the sanctum is a beautifully laid out garden with many flowering plants. The main deity is a large standing from of the great Vaishnavite Saint Ramanujar. There is a shrine for him with a rock-cut carving. Below the island on the bank of the river is a rock with a light carving of Ramanujar which is visible only when ablution is performed. We were shown the carving by splashing the water from the river on it.
