Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Thiru Parameswara Vinnagaram or Vaikunta Perumal Temple is dedicated to Mahavishnu and located in Kanchipuram in Tamil Nadu. Constructed with Dravidian Temple Architecture witha Vesara Viman, the temple is glorified in Nalayira Divya Prabandham, the Medieval Tamil canto of the Alwar Vaishnavite saint from the 6th through the 9th centuries CE. Vishnu is worshipped as Vaikuntanathan and his consort Lakshmi as Sri Vaikundavalli. The temple is believed to have been built by the Pallava king Nandivarman II (731 CE–796 CE), with later contributions from Medieval Cholas and Vijayanagara kings. The temple has an Ashtanga Vimana with three sancta, one above the other, lodging three states of Vishnu as standing, lying and seated postures, for worship.
