    Nava Thirupathis come under Pandiya naatu divyadesams of Sri Vaishnavas. Each of the nine temples represent

    one of the nine grahas of navagrahas- namely Sooryan, Chandran, Rahu, Ketu, Guru, Shukran, Shani,

    Mangalan, Sowmyan. Although the number of temples are nine, it constitutes only eight divyadesams with two

    temples called Irratai tirupathi combinedly considered as just one divyadesam.

    Some of these temples are really big and takes time to pray at all sannadhis and come around the prakaram

    admiring the beautiful sculptures and architecture. The timings of the temple are also quite varied. However one

    can easily cover all the nine temples in half a day's trip.

    Three of the temples are on one side of the Thamirabharani river and six of them on another side. Have a look at

    the map below..click to enlarge

    The roads are really small and rough as one goes into the interiors and it is advisible to either hire a guide if

    going by personal vehicle. However most of the taxi drivers from Tirunelveli and Srivaikundam are well versed

    with the routes and temple timings.

    Have a look at the temple timings -

    Depending on what time one starts visiting the temples, it would be ideal to mark the temples that close early and

    finish it off first and then go on to visit the temples that remain open even during the afternoon.

    Accomodation facilities are good only at Thirunelveli and Alwar Thirunagari

    Temple that can also be visited in the same day -

    1. Bhavisyatar sannadhi - Right behind Alwar Thirunagari temple

    2. Punnai nagar Srinivasa temple - Managed by the famous Hotel Saravana bhavan group

    3. Karungulam Srinivasa temple - On the Tirunelveli- Tiruchendur highway

    4. Krishnapuram Venkateshwara temple- On the Tirunelveli- Tiruchendur highway closer to Tirunelveli

    5. Tiruchendur Murugan temple
