Thiruarimeya Vinnagaram, or Kudamadukoothan Perumal Temple, stands in Tirunangur, a village near Sirkaḻi in Tamil Nadu, dedicated to the Hindu god Vishnu in Dravidian architectural style. One of the 108 Divya Desams—sacred temples celebrated in the Nalayira Divya Prabandham, the early medieval Tamil canon of Alvar saints (6th–9th centuries CE)—the temple enshrines Vishnu as Kudamudakoothan alongside his consort Lakshmi as Amirtagadavalli. Closely associated with the Alvar saint Thirumangai Alvar, it is one of eleven Divya Desams at Tirunangur Tirupatis. The temple observes four daily rituals and hosts the annual Thirumangai Alvar Mangalasasana Utsavam during the Tamil month of Thai, when festival images of all eleven Tirunangur Tirupatis are ceremoniously carried on a Garuda Vahana—a vehicle fashioned to resemble the divine bird Garuda.
