The Nellaiappar Temple was constructed by Nindraseer Nedumaran who reigned in the 7th century A.D. There is a flower garden in the centre of the temple. In the centre of the garden, there is a square vasantha mandapm with 100 pillars. It is said that this whole place used to be full of bamboo trees and it was destroyed, and so inside the temple they still have some bamboo trees.
