  • The actual name 'ruthran'(common name for Ruthran,the Siva)thurai was later called as 'Rukkanthurai' and then it became 'Irukkanthurai' Swamy Kasi Viswanathar and Periya Naayagi Annai Temple is situated in the middle of the village. This temple is famous for its four 'Lingams' placed in a row that is very rare. One inside the temple as 'Main Moorthy' and three outside the temple in a straight line that bless all its devotees. Most of the temple was built during Nedumara Pandian period. A symbol of 'Fish' (meen ilaichinai) still found in the doorstep of the temple. Naalaayira Mangai Annai Temple is also situated nearby. Have you ever seen Annai's face and you will be blessed forever. Come and be blessed.
