Sri Iyyappa Swami Temple is also called here as Manikanda Swami Temple and it is situated on the Main Road facing West. This Temple is supposed to have been built 22 years before probably in the year 2002 - 2003. There is a small Welcome Arch with 3 or 4 steps to be climbed.  On the right side is a huge Panchamuga Anjaneyar Idol with a Mace gorgeously painted in various colours and on the left is a huge Gold colour Murugan or Subramaniya Swamy Idol who is seen in a standing posture with a Spear. Both these Idols stand tall to a height of around 30 feet and below these Idols are similar looking black stone Vigrahams of the same God. Close to this is a 4 pillared mandapam with a Paambhu Puthu and 4 Naga Devathas around it. Then there is another Welcome Arch with a few elevated steps and on either side of it are a Muti coloured Elephant Idols. On reaching here there is a small Sub Shrine designed in the form of a Chariot for Ganapathi and there is a Ghoshala where they care of several cows very well. There is a Dwajasthambam seen along with 18 metal steps leading us to the Main Temple but this is closed and Devotees could reach the Main Temple through a side entrance. Only those found with Irumudi can reach the Main Temple through this 18 steps. On either side of these steps are two Idols of Karuppuswamy viz Periya Karuppar and Chinna Karuppar. The entire first floor of the Temple is cemented with black tiles and close to the entrance a Thulabaaram facility is available for the Devotees. On the outer peripheral of the first floor is a Sub Shrine for Ganapathy who is made out of a Panchaloga Vigraham. Likewise in a similar Sub Shrine Lord Murugan is found as a Panchaloga Vigraham. A pair of Dwara Baalakas are found on the doorway leading to the Sanctum Sanctorum where Lord Iyyappan known as Manikanda Swamy is seen. A pair of Yaali images welcome Devotees to the ground floor of the Temple. In the Moolasthanam the Idol of Durgai Amman is found majestically seated on a Lion and beneath Her is the Urchavamoorthy Vigraham and the Sree Chakaram. There is a Sub Shrine for Srinivasa Perumal and a Vinayagar Idol is also found closeby for which Homam is being done on a regular basis. The entire flooring in this area has black tiles with multiple pillars grey in colour and etched with various Images of Gods. The Idols of Panchamuga Anjaneyar and Goddess Saraswathy are engraved and fixed on the outer walls of the Shrine in which Goddess Durga is placed. At the rear of the Temple is an artificial pond upon which Lord Shiva's Idol is seen in blue colour and closeby is a Navagraha enclosure. The Temple has its own kitchen for distributing Prasadams to the Devotees.  This Temple is fully owned by the local Reddys and not by the Government and it is primarily located lush green cultivable lands all around it.
