The temple is at
Pollachi Main Road, Eachanari. The idol that is 6 feet tall with
3 feet breadth was being transited from Madurai to Perur, during
which the wheel of the conveyance gave away at Eachanari. This
temple lays 13 Km away from coimbatore on the pollachi main
road. The temple was completed on 03.06.77.
The temple is kept
open between 5.00AM to 10.00PM. The special pooja for the idol
is done at 6.30 AM and at 6.30 PM everyday. The Moolavar at this
temple was actually meant for Perur Patteshwarar temple and
since it got stuck on its way from Madurai, Eachanari became the
blessed place.
It is one of the oldest temple in Coimbatore and dates to 1500
A.D. Special
poojas are done during Kiruthikai, Poornima, Amavasya and
Chathurthi. Lord Vinayagar is the residing deity of Eachanari
Temple.
