Enroute to Tiruchendur |
We traveled from Madurai to Tiruchendur by car. We started around 7 am reached by 10 am. Lord Muruga's Temple in Tiruchendur is a part of Arupadai Veedu ( 6 Major Abodes of Lord Muruga). The temple is situated right on the shore of Bay of Bengal. Usually devotees take a dip in the sea before going for darshan of Senthil Andavar (Lord Muruga). The temple main deities are Senthil Andavar with his consorts Deivanai and Valli. We traveled on a weekday and it did not fall on any festival observed at the temple, so there was hardly any crowd. We had a wonderful darshan , went to the beach for a little bit , had a picnic lunch on the way back and returned to Madurai by 4.30 pm.
