Opening hours
The map listing does not give opening hours. Most village kovils open for the morning and evening pujas, near sunrise and sunset, and stay open longer on Fridays, full moons and festival days; that is a pattern, not this temple's timetable.

Where this comes from
This temple came from a public map listing (2026-10-31 Villupuram district villages), and its address from its own listing, opened on 1 November 2026 and matched by its plus code. None of it has been checked on the ground. The name is written our way (title case, Sri, Kovil); the listing's own spelling is kept above.
