Temple Directory
108 Divya Desams: the complete list
The Divya Desams are the 108 Vishnu shrines praised in the Naalayira Divya Prabandham, the 4,000 Tamil verses of the twelve Alvar saints (6th–9th century CE). 106 are on earth — 84 of them in Tamil Nadu — and two are celestial, reachable only beyond this life. Devout Sri Vaishnavas aspire to visit all of them in a lifetime. This directory covers every desam with location, deities and travel links; where tradition counts more than one desam at a single temple, they are listed together, so the table below has slightly fewer rows than 108.
🏨 Planning the pilgrimage? Most travellers base themselves in Srirangam — compare hotels early, festival weekends sell out. For guided visits, browse tours & day trips.
