Thiruppathisaram also known as Thiruvanparisaram is to the north-east of Nagercoil. The place derives its name from a 5000 years old temple dedicated to Thiruvazhimarban Lord Vishnu.

Renovation of this temple were carried out by King Kulasekara and Thirumalai Nayakar. A few years ago renovation and kumbha-abhishekam (consecration) was carried out by the Devaswom Board.

The idol of the chief deity is 9 feet tall and made of a special element called Kadusamagayogam (Mustard and Jaggery paste) and no ablutions are performed to it. Dasavathara (Ten incarnations of Vishnu) paintings adorn the Indra Kalyana Mandapam of this temple.
