MADURAI

The temple is a sculptural marvel as it is lavishly endowed and adorned with architectural and sculptural embellishments.  Many festivals are celebrated simultaneously here and at Madurai. Of the oddities of this rituals of the temple from a spring lying at 3 km of atop the hill is brought, for the abhishekam purpose, since water from many source blackens the bronze icons.  Mystery of divinities is only to be venerated rather than probed.

A few miles of this hill temple, there is another dedicated to Murugan.  It is called Palamudircholai, one of the Arupadiveedus - six important temples held dear to Murugan.  It is visited by all throughout the year.  Its legends are many and sanctity, great.
