History
Historians believe that long back there was a pit during the Chola period, near which people used to milk the cows, fill the pots and bring it to the King's court. One day a miracle happened and the milk from one of the pots disappeared completely. Suddenly, a voice came out which asked him to fill the pit entirely with milk. The pit was really a huge one, however, the king obeyed the lord and with the help of his people got the entire pit filled with milk. Just as the milk reached the brim, a divine light splashed and lord Vishnu in the avatar of Kuralappan Venkatachalapati appeared and gave darshan to the King. The lord was very pleased with his devotion and dedication and hence agreed to stay in that spot. Later on the king built a magnificent temple on the same location which is today known as the Kuralappan Venkatachalapati Perumal Vishnu Temple.
