திருமோகூர் காளமேகப் பெருமாள் கோயில்
Thirumohur, Tamil Nadu · 9.9510°, 78.2071°
A Divya Desam near Madurai identified in an inscription of 1259 CE under the later Pandyas, its present structure raised by the Madurai Nayaks; among the 108 shrines it is unique for the Lord's rare Prathanasayana appearance.
During the churning of the ocean of milk, Vishnu is said to have become the enchantress Mohini here to deny the asuras the nectar - hence Thiru-mohur.
