Located in Kanchipuram, Tamil Nadu, the Anekadhangavadeswarar Temple is a Dravidian Hindu shrine dedicated to Shiva, situated near the Kailasanathar temple. Revered in the 7th-century Tamil Saiva canonical work the Tevaram, composed by the nayanars, it holds the distinguished status of Paadal Petra Sthalam—one of 275 temples celebrated in that sacred canon. The temple maintains a regular schedule of two daily rituals and observes three yearly festivals, with Thirukarthikai (November–December) and Mahashivarathri (February–March) as the most significant. It is administered by the Hindu Religious and Endowment Board of the Government of Tamil Nadu.
