This divya desam is located about 12 miles from Trichy on the wat to Turaiyur. It can also be reached from Srirangam on the way to Uttamar koil. This place is also known as Svethagiri kshetram. It is believed that this temple was built by Sibi Chakravarti who belongs to the same dynasty as Sri Rama. The lineage is as follows: The grandson of Sibi Chakravarti is Sagaran, his grandson is Bagirathan, his grandson is Dileepan, whose son is Raghu, whose son is Ajan, whose son is Dasarathan, and one of his four sons is Sri Rama. Thus this temple has been built by one of the illustriuos forefathers of Sri Rama himself.
