Built by King Raja Raja Chola I around 1000 years ago, the Guganathaswamy Temple in Nagercoil is a significant Shiva temple reflecting classic Chola-period architecture. The temple houses 16 stone inscriptions dating from 1038 AD to 1045 AD, making it a valuable site for students of South Indian history and epigraphy. Located conveniently near the Nagercoil railway station, it is a peaceful and historically rich stop for devotees and heritage travellers visiting the Kanyakumari district.
