Rock fort Temple :
The most famous land mark of this bustling town is the Rockfort Temple, a spectacular monument perched on a massive rocky out crop which rises abruptly from the plain to tower over the old city. It was one of the main centers around which the wars of the Carnatic were fought in the 18th century during the British-French struggle for supremacy in India. The city is a thriving commercial centre in Tamil Nadu and is famous for artificial diamonds, cigars, handloom cloth, glass bangles and wooden and clay toys.

Srirangam (Sri Ranganathaswamy Temple) :
This grand temple complex is situated at 3 km from the Rock Fort. This is one of the finest temples in South India dedicated to Lord Vishnu and is apparently the largest temple complex in the whole of India. This 13th century temple is surrounded by 7 concrete walls with 21 gopurams.

Tiruvanaikkaval or Jambukeshwara temple :
The Jambukeshwara temple is dedicated to Shiva and houses five concentric walls, and seven gopurams. Once an elephant worshipped Lord Shiva under the holy Jambu tree and hence the name Jambukeshwar. The Shiva Lingam is partially submerged in water which flows from an underground spring.

Sri Ranganathaswami Temple :
Located 7-km from Trichy is Srirangam, the abode of the Supreme Lord, Sri Ranganatha, the reclining form of Lord Vishnu. The temple of Ranganatha, the largest in India, is of particular reverence to all Hindus.
