February 14, 2022 Yuk Petri

The buildings and monuments in Tirunelveli are astonishing. The famous Nellaiappar Temple in particular is a kaleidoscopic feast, an explosion of color and detail that’s supported by musical pillars. Needless to say, it should be on your itinerary. Tour a nearby tea plantation, enjoy the cooling cascade of one of the area’s many waterfalls, or nibble on halwa (a local sweet) while you take in a Tamil film at the Central Theatre.

Reviewed By sudd2020 - Oakville, Canada

This is a Paadal Petra Sthalam. Very historic temple. This is the Hall of Paintings or Chitra Sabai of the 5 Sabais or Pancha Sabais of Nataraja. The temple itself is shaped like a conch. The Chitra Sabai is located away from the main temple and should be missed.
