Vannakkam: Although Ganesha is found in 95% of the temples, He is usually not the main deity. There are a few of temples where that is the case though. I know of 3 more famous ones in Tamil Nadu ... Rajaganapathi in Salem, Pillaiyarpatti, and Uchi Pillaiyar in Trichy. I'm sure there are others elsewhere. Often pilgrimages are grouped, in a group of temples, like the 12 Jyotirlingams (Siva), 5 elemental lingams (Siva), 6 Murugan temples (arapadaveedu pilgrimage) of the 9 navagaraha temples around Kumbakonam. Please understand that India is home to a minimum of 20 000 temples, of which at least 1000 are 'famous' in some way.
