Another one of the 108 Divya Desams, this temple is considered to be an important place of pilgrimage for the Vaishnavites. Located in Kanchipuram, about 70 kilometres from Chennai, the Varadharaja Perumal is huge and filled with mythological stories! Over 350 inscriptions from empires such as the Chola, Pandiya, Chera, Hosalya and the Vijayanagara are found on the temple walls. Spread across 23 acres, this temple is home to the Atthi Varadhar idol, which is submerged inside the temple tank. The idol is brought up once in 40 years for 48 days of worship. Make a visit there and dive right into the spiritual, Vaishnavite spirit of Margazhi.
