Tirupparankundram Murugar

Tirupparankundram is 7 kms from Madurai city and is famous for one of the Arupadai Veedu temple here. The temple can be reached by taking the Tirupparankundram Road and following the route to Thyagaraja College of Engineering.

According to Sthala Puranam, Lord Murugar married Indra's daughter Deivayanai after Surasamhaaram in this Kshetram. Near the entrance of the temple, there is a statue of Murugar marrying Deivayanai. Devotees usually resolve to garland this statue as a token of thanks for marriage being fixed for their near and dear ones.

In this temple, one can offer milk for performing Abhishekam for the Vel. The Moolavar is in the marriage scene that is engraved/ sculpted on the walls of the hill.

The temple is currently in Balalayam with Kumbabhishekam being planned for June 6th 2011.
