  Temple History:
     
  Completing the forest life of 14 years, Lord Rama prepared Himself for the return journey to Ayodhya.  The sages of the forest requested Lord to stay with them for ever.  He promised them to fulfill their request the next day.  Lord made an idol of him and simply placed it before His lodging then.  The sages, who came to see Rama next morning lost themselves at the beauty of the idol and desired to have it for themselves.  Rama, as if he knew nothing about the idol, asked the sages that they liked the idol more they liked Him.  Allured by the beauty of the idol, the sages said Yes.  Lord Rama gladly gave them their wish and returned to Ayodhya.
The idol, after thousand of years reached the hands of the devotees in Tirukannapuram.  They also made other idols – Mother Sita, Sri Lakshmana and Sri Anjaneya.  During foreign invasion, they hid the idols in a place called Thalai Gnayiru.  Lord Sri Rama appeared in the dream of King Sarfoji, ruling then the Thanjavur region and directed him to build the temple for Him, indicating also the place.  The king went to Thalai Gnayiru, took the idols and on return stayed at Vaduvur for a while.  Many devotees met the king and requested him to install the idols in Vaduvur.  Responding to the wishes of devotees, the king left the idol with them.  The temple came into being then.
