About the temple

Sivapuri Uchinathar Temple is an ancient Shiva shrine near Chidambaram where the deity is venerated as Uchinathar, meaning the 'Midday Lord,' commemorating an episode when Lord Shiva fed the saint Tirugnanasambandar and his companions. The shrine draws devotees through the day for darshan and aarti, with the atmosphere reaching its peak during the evening rituals and on festival days when special pujas are performed.
