Thiru Punugeeswarar temple

A very old temple and just 3kms away from the Mayiladuthurai central Bus stand is the Thiru Punugeeswarar temple.    The temple's morning pooja is only from 9 AM and hence can be suitably planned for a darshan at this temple.     This temple is situated in Koorainadu in the western part of Mayuram. This is named after Punuku siddar who got Moksha here. Koorai means clothe. During a typical South Indian marriage, a typical South Indian bride wears a saree, which is called Koorai saree.   In olden days such sarees were woven only in koorainadu and this is the reason behind the name 'koorai pudavai'.   As Iwent there, too early in the morning, I am not able to give you more details on the temple.  I welcome more details.
