| Located 21 kms. northwest of Madurai is a Vishnu Temple on a picturesque wooded hill. |
| Here 'Vishnu' presides as Meenakshi's brother 'Azhgar'. During the Chitrai festival in April/May, when the celestial marriage of Meenakshi to Sundareswarar is celebrated, Azhagar travels to Madurai. A gold processional icon called the Sundararajar is carried by devotees in procession from Azhagar Kovil to Madurai for wedding ritual. |
| Palamudhirsolai, one of the six abodes of Lord Subramanya is on the same hill, about 4 kms. above. A natural spring called Nuburagangai where pilgrims bath, is located here. |

Just
one Kilometer distance from Bus stand. The Temple is dedicated to
Meenakshi, the lovely consort of Lord Shiva. The original temple was
built by Kulasekara Pandya, but the entire credit for making the temple
as splendid as it is today goes to the Nayaks. |
