  • 6 abodes of Lord Murugan

arupadai veedu temples

Six Abodes of Murugan (AaruPadai Veedu)

In Tamil Nadu, spread across the length and breadth of this southern state of India, are the six, stunning abodes of Lord Murugan, who is also popularly called as Muruga, Skanda, Kartikeya and Vadivela. Quite famous for their legacy, sanctity and architectural grandeur, these divine temples include Thirupparamkunram, Thiruchendur, Palani, Swamimalai, Thiruthani, and Pazhamudircholai. In fact, these beautiful holy abodes have found their way into the Tamil Sangam Literature, such as in the works of great Tamil poets Nakkeerar’s ‘Thirumurugatrupadai’ and saint Arunagirinathar’s ‘Thiruppugazh’.

Now let’s get down to explore in detail these six must-visit holy destinations which are known as ‘AaruPadai Veedu’

Thiru Avinankudi Temple or the Palani Temple as it is famously called is located nearly 1500 ft. above the sea level, this striking ancient temple gives a stunning panorama, overlooking the Palani town along with Kodaikanal Hills, Idumban Hill, the Western Ghats, lovely rivers, lush green paddy fields and some educational institutions nestled in between. From here, one can enjoy a fine view of the KurinjiAndavar Temple against the backdrop of the Sun on a clear day, when there is no mist. During the day, Palani is a mesmerising sight to behold with an expansive greenery spread all over while at night the entire hill lit up beautifully dotted with temple and town lights. The deity in this temple is called, Dandayudhapani Swami or the Lord holding a staff. The interesting thing about this sanctum is that the deity has been built of 9 minerals, popularly known as ‘Navapashanam’ and it was created by a yogi, Siddha Bogar, an ardent devotee of Lord Murugan. The deity is shown wearing only a loincloth and having a baton in hand – denoting a universal message to ‘renounce everything to reach the Lord’. While Murugan stands for beauty, the Lord of Kurinji is known for being the God of Youth and Beauty.

This temple consists of 3 ‘Gopurams’ and 3 ‘Praharams’ (or Prahar). The southern side ‘Gopuram’ has five storeys and statutes all over it whereas there are no towers over the remaining two ‘Gopurams’. The Praharams have an interesting arrangement – the first one is located at the foothill, the second one is above, in the middle portion of the hill and the third one is at the top running around the temple. After entering through the ‘Raja Gopuram’ (main entrance) and the ‘KalyanaMandapam', one gets to visit the temple of Goddess Sakti along with other important shrines of different deities. There is a special well here called ‘VajraTeethra’. From here one can move upwards of the hill and half way up, there is an elevated area where you can find statues which boast of architectural grandeur, all portraying the legendary stories associated with the Swamimalai temple. After this, on the top you come across the next Praharam and beyond this level, further on top you will reach the main temple. On the first Praharam there are several other temples meant for different deities.

Thiruchendur

Thiruchendur Murugan Temple is located on the shores of Bay of Bengal. After defeating the demon Surapadma, the Lord came to this temple to worship Lord Shiva. Most of the temples in Tamil Nadua have the ‘Raja Gopuram’ or the principal entrance in the eastern side. But in this particular temple, the main entrance is in the western side. The reason being that the sea appeared too close in the eastern side and hence the entrance was not built here. The ‘Mela Gopuram’ is built with nine storeys which nearly 137 ft. high above Yalimattam, 65 ft. broad east to west and 90 ft. long north to south. The width of the Gopuram’s top is 20 ft. while the length is around 49 ft. In order to highlight the nine storeys there are 9Kalasams orholy copper pots over the Gopuram’s top.

Thirupparamkunram

Unlike other five temples where the Lord is seen in a standing position, here at Thirupparamkunram he is placed in a wedding setting, sitting along with Deivanai, his consort. On his sides, the Lord has Saraswathi the Goddess of Wisdom and Savithri while the Creator Brahma, the King of Devas Indira and Narada Muni stand as witnesses.Above the Lord, there are the Sun, the Moon and the celestial, skilled singers Gandharvas. The Lord’s vehicles the elephant and sheep are seen below. Since this temple is set in a cave, for safeguarding the natural elements the Lord is applied with ‘Punugu’ a special scented paste alone while only his weapon Vel is used for Abhishekam (the ritual of pouring or sprinkling holy water or any related substances). During the month of Purattasi (which falls between September and October), on the last Saturday, this Vel is then taken to the shrine of KasiViswanatha located in proximity on the hill. As a matter of fact, this temple is touted to be the only place where the Vel is conducted with an Abhishekam. The major significance of the Vel is that the Lord used this particular weapon to defeat a demon called Surapadma and after winning the battle he came to this temple. A beautiful gold chariot has been made exclusively for the temple in recent times. Devotees who are interested to be part of the annual procession – when Lord Murugan’s idol is taken into the gold chariot – should register well in advance.

This is the fifth temple of Lord Murugan among his six army camp houses. The legend goes that the King of Gods Indra got his daughter married to Skanda (the other name of Murugan) and as a dowry presented the Lord with his white elephant, Airavatam. However, after Airavatam left, the wealth of Indra started waning. While Subramanyar was willing to return the elephant, Indra refused to have it back because he didn’t want to break the ritual of accepting his own gift. But, he put forth a suggestion that Airavatam must face his direction. That’s why the elephant’s image seen in this temple is facing the east.

Legend also has it that Vasuki, the King of Snakes, after worshipping Lord Murugan at Thanikai had his wounds healed. The wounds were inflicted on his body while he was used as a rope, by devas and demons to churn the Milky Ocean to obtain the Amrita (immortality nectar) while Mantotra mountain served as the base for churning.

Similar it is said that, at Tanikai, Sage Agasthiyar Muni worshipped the Lord, who blessed him with the gift of Tamil language.

Pazhamudircholai

The sixth and final temple of Lord Murugan is situated around 25 Kms, north of Madurai over a hill top and densely covered by forests. Story has it that Goddess Valli use to live among these in a shrine while there is a separate temple having the Lord Murugan, and Deivayani. Also here is a temple of Lord Ganesha. A temple tower is located here which is inhabited by playful monkeys.

Pazhamudircholai Murugan Temple lies in close proximity to the Vishnu shrine of AzhagarKovil. The shrine is accessible via two-wheeler, car, bus or van. In fact there is a facility for bus shuttle every twenty minutes from the foothill of this temple and it takes around fifteen minutes to reach it. The place is abundant of flowers, vegetables and fruits.

Above Pazhamudhircholai, there is a small shrine around which local tribes reside. It is a rich and fertile terrain comprising of various rare herbs as well as natural springs.

Itinerary Details

Arupadai Veedu tour begins with your arrival at Chennai, the capital of Tamil Nadu.

We pick you from the airport/railway station and escort you to Thiruthani , where one of the 6 holy abodes is located. Thiruthani (or Tiruttani) Murugan Temple is located on a hillock and is accessible by climbing 365 steps (representing days of a year) or via a motorable road. It was here that Lord Kartikeya rested and attained peace after war with the demon king Surapadman and married one of his two consorts named Valli.

Several other legends state that the divine place was visited by Lord Rama and Arjuna, one of the 5 Pandavas. Lord Vishnu and Lord Brahma too worshipped Subramaniya here.

Start an early morning drive to Swamimalai. The town has Swamimalai Murugan Temple located over a hillock and accessible via 60 steps (each named after a Tamil year).

It was here that Kartikeya imprisoned Lord Brahma who could not explain the meaning of the Pranav Mantra ‘Om’. When Lord Shiva (Kartikeya’s father) tried to convince him and asked him the meaning of the mantra, he explained it like a guru (teacher). Lord Shiva was impressed and praised him as Swaminatha Swami (Teacher of Shiva).

This is the reason that Murugan’s shrine is atop the hill while Shiva’s shrine is at the foot.

Leave Kumbakonam to visit the third Murugan temple at Palani. Located over a hill is the Palani Dhandayutapani Temple where Lord Murugan is worshipped as the one carrying dhanda (staff) yuta (weapon) in pani (hands).

It was here that Kartikeya resided as a hermit and meditated after he was tricked by his brother Lord Ganesha to win a divine fruit of wisdom.

Today, you will visit the two of the six Murugan temples. First, visit Tirupparankunram Murugan Temple (about 8 km. from Madurai), known for its inimitably beautiful architecture. It was here that Murugan married his second consort named Deivayanai, the daughter of God Indra.

On arrival, pray at the temple and then you would love to discover the hypnotic rock-cut architecture and other impressive arts at every inch of the temple.

Later, drive to Pazhamudircholai (about 24 km. from Madurai) where the 5th Murugan Temple is located on a hill amidst dense jungles and fruit orchards. It was here that Murugan tested his ardent follower Avvaiyar.

On arrival, pray at the temple and explore its architecture. Overnight stay at Madurai.

Drive from Madurai to Thiruchendur early morning.

Located on the sandal mountain remains near the coast, Thiruchendur Murugan Temple is the place lord Murugan fought with and defeated the demon king Surapadman and also worshipped Lord Shiva.

On arrival, pray at the temple and explore various construction features and the coast. Later, begin the drive back to Madurai. Reach back Madurai airport on time in evening.

Things To Remember On Your Arupadai Veedu Tour

  • hemann2016 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Great experience in Kerala with AIP We had a 6D5N tour to Kerala. When we landed at Cochin Airport, our driver, Eltinis, welcomed us. We checked into the first hotel, Hotel Presidency Cochin, which was conveniently close to the airport, making it easy to reach after our 4-hour-plus flight. The room was comfortable but did not quite meet the standards of a 4-star hotel. The breakfast could be improved with more variety, so we would rate it 7/10. Our day began with a visit to Athirapally Waterfall, which is not recommended for elderly people. The waterfall view was beautiful. We then checked into The Leaf Munnar for a 2-day stay. This was one of the best resorts we experienced during our 6-day tour. The staffs were very friendly and welcomed us in traditional ways. The resort offered a variety of evening activities, including complimentary tea and coffee. We celebrated our son's birthday at the resort restaurant, where the food, especially the chili fish, was delicious. The breakfast spread was diverse. The next day, we enjoyed a jeep safari and had the opportunity to participate in Sivarathiri prayers at Mahadeva Temple, as it coincided with the festival. We also visited Ripple Munnar, Ripper Waterfall, Ponmudi Dam, Echo Point Munnar, Ponmudi Viewpoint, and Hanging Bridge Ponmudi. We then visited the Museum & Plantation (Kannan Devan Hills Plantations) and had a refreshing drink of Nonggu on the way to our next stop. We also experienced Kathakali & Kalaripayattu martial arts, which was amazing. Our last stop of the day was Prakrithi Multi-Cuisine Restaurant, where we received excellent service and enjoyed delicious food. The restaurant caters to a variety of tastes, and the staffs were attentive and provided excellent service. On the next day when check-our from the resort the staff even took a picture of us in front of the hotel, printed it on a hotel's paper photo frame card for us to keep as a memory. We highly recommend this resort. Next, we travelled to Thekkady, where we started our tour with a hot air balloon ride in Munnar. It was a nice experience, although we felt that the 600 INR paid for 20 soft copy photos was not worth it, as only 4 out of 10 pictures were good. On our way to Periyar Spices & Ayurvedic Garden, we saw Vandanmedu Ganapathi. We had a good lunch at a restaurant, although we unfortunately did not remember its name. We then proceeded with an elephant safari, which was worth the price. It was a sweet memory when the elephant blessed us. We checked into Wild Avenue Resort & Spa, which we do not recommend. The lift did not function properly, there were network and Wi-Fi issues due to poor room range, and the electricity tripped three times. After 7 pm, we couldn't even go outside near the swimming pool due to a lot of mosquitoes. Our journey continued to the Boathouse in Alleppey, where we had another delightful stay. The owner and chef were polite, the food was delicious, and the luxury houseboat made our vacation very comfortable. We plan to return here soon. On the last day, we checked out and visited Chottanikkara Bhagavathi Amman Temple, followed by lunch at Dhe Puttu Cochin, which offered a great variety of food, excellent hospitality, value for money, and a great ambiance. It is a must-try restaurant in Kochi. We then went shopping at Seematti Kochi, which provided a great shopping experience. Our driver, Eltin's brother, was also superb and never seemed tired of taking us wherever we wanted to go. His friendly and approachable demeanour made our tour enjoyable. Thank you for a memorable experience, brother. It was a fantastic tour with a comfortable Tempo. To the tour agent, thank you very much, Saba Fathima, for arranging a wonderful vacation to Kerala and providing us with unforgettable memories. We were very satisfied with all the arrangements. It was an awesome trip! Thank you for the excellent service and immediate responses to all our inquiries. You arranged everything according to our preferences, and we would highly recommend AIP to our friends and relatives who plan to travel to India in the future. Great job, and keep it up!

3. Dandayuthapani Swamy Temple at Pazhani

Pazhani (Palani) is situated in Dindigul District, on the Palani hill bottom (Malai Adivaram) called Thiruaavinankudi, where the temple deity is known as "Kuzhanthai Velayuthaswami". Palani also has the scriptural name as Pothigai.

The legend is that this lord was worshipped by Goddess Lakshmi ('Thiru' in Tamil), the sacred cow Kamadhenu ('Aa' in Tamil), the sun God Suryan ('Inan' in Tamil), the earth goddess ('ku' in Tamil), and the fire god Agni ('Di' in Tamil), hence the place called "Thiruaavinankudi". 

The hill top temple has 690 steps where "Dhandayuthapani" is the main deity, in a meditating state, carrying a staff ('danda') as weapon ('ayutha') in his hands ('pani'). Here, the main deity is made out of Navabashanam and was created and established by Siddhar Bhogar.

Great Tamil poet Avvaiyar, known not only for her poetic excellence but also for wisdom, called Murugan "Pazham Nee" so the place came to be known as Pazhani.

This is the place where Murugan resided after his feud with his family over a divine fruit.

Arupadai Veedu (அறுபடை வீடு) – The Six Abodes of Lord Murugan in Tamilnadu

On This Page

About Lord Murugan & Arupadaiveedu

Lord Muruga is a powerful deity and most of us are familiar with his six abodes but don’t know much about them.

The six major temples of Lord Murugan spread across Tamil Nadu, India. They are collectively known as the Arupadai veedu.

Pilgrims often visit all six temples in order and complete the tour in a single journey. It is considered a way of retracing Murugan’s steps and paying homage to him at each of his adobes.

Devotees believe that by visiting all six temples, they will be blessed with health, wealth, and happiness. The Arupadai Veedu are some of the most popular pilgrimage sites in the Temple state of Tamilnadu.

Each of the six temples has its own unique history and legend that is worth learning more about.

Our guide to the Arupadai veedu will introduce you to these amazing temples tour in order and help you plan a pilgrimage.

It includes in-depth information about each of the six temples, including directions on how to get there, what to see and do when you’re there, and where to stay.

Arupadai Veedu List in Order

The six abodes are located at Thiruparankundram, Tiruchendur, Palani, Swamimalai, Thiruthani, and Pazhamudircholai are at remote hilltops. At Tiruchendur, the massive temple is by the seaside.

1. Thiruparankundram

arupadai veedu tour package from salem

Importance : Lord Murugan’s Marriage

Lord Murugan Called : Arulmigu Subramaniya Swamy

District : Madurai

Arulmigu Subramaniya Swamy Temple in Thiruparankundram is the first temple of Arupadai Veedu . Lord Muruga is worshipped as Subramaniyan at this shrine on the outskirts of Madurai.

The temple is a cave temple on a hill that was built in the 8th century by a king named Maravarman Sundara Pandiyan. 

The location is thought to be where Murugan married Deivayanai, the daughter of Lord Indra, as a thank you for Murugan’s victory over the demon king Surapadman.

2. Tiruchendur

arupadai veedu tour package from salem

Importance : Destroying the asura Surapadman

Lord Murugan Called : Senthinathan

District : Thoothukudi (formerly Tuticorin)

The second Arupadaiveedu is the Thiruchendur Murugan temple. The shrine was built to honor Murugan’s victory over the demon king Surapadman. It is the only temple dedicated to Muruga which is located near a seashore, as the other five are in hilly regions.

According to legend, after the death of Surapadman, Lord Muruga wanted to thank his father Shiva, so the divine architect Mayan was summoned and the shrine was constructed. Muruga can be seen in the posture of praying to his father.

3. Palani (Pazhani)

Palani Murugan temple 3rd Arupadai Veedu

Importance : Lost the Gnana Pazham

Lord Murugan Called : Dhandayuthapani Swamy

District : Dindigul

Palani (Thiruaavinankudi) Murugan temple is the third Arupadai Veedu of 6 houses of Lord Murugan.

According to legend, Shiva decided to hold a competition between his two sons, Ganesha and Muruga, when Sage Narada visited Lord Shiva in his abode and presented him with a fruit known as the fruit of knowledge. 

The fruit would be given to the one who arrives first after surrounding the globe. Muruga accepts the challenge and begins his journey around the world on his vahana, the peacock.

Whereas, Ganesha told Shiva that his parents are his world, and would walk around them. As a result, Ganesha was the winner, and Shiva bestowed the fruit upon him.

When Muruga returned, he came to know that his elder brother had already won the fruit, disappointed Muruga left the Kailash and stood atop the Palani Hills.

4. Swamimalai

arupadai veedu tour package from salem

Importance : Preaching the Pranava Mantra “OM”

Lord Murugan Called : Balamurugan & Swaminatha Swami

District : Thanjavur

The fourth Arupadai Veedu is Swamimalai. It is also known as Swaminatha Swamy Temple and is located near the temple town of Kumbakonam.

The temple is regarded as the location where Muruga taught his father Shiva the meaning of the Pranava Mantra “OM”. As a result, the location is home to the one-of-a-kind form in which the son is the teacher and the father is the student.

Another distinction is that his vehicle, rather than the peacock in the sanctum, is an elephant; it is believed that the elephant is Airavatha, which was given to Muruga by Indra.

5. Tiruthani

arupadai veedu tour package from salem

Importance : Marriage with Sri Valli

Lord Murugan Called : Sri Subrahmanya Swami

District : Tiruvallur

Many stories are associated with this temple.

According to a legend, Indra gave Muruga his daughter Devayani to marry and gave him his elephant Airavata as a gift. When Indra noticed that his wealth was shrinking after Airavata left, Muruga offered to return the elephant, but Indra refused and insisted that the elephant face his direction, so the image of the elephant in the temple also faces the east rather than the deity.

In another scripture, Muruga is said to have rested atop the hill to calm himself down after killing the demon king Surapadman at Thiruchendur. And he met Valli and fell in love with her then the marriage between Lord Murugan and Sri Valli took place in this temple.

6. Pazhamudircholai

arupadai veedu tour package from salem

Importance : Darshan to devotees with both his consorts

Lord Murugan Called : Solaimalai Murugan & Kurinji Nilam Kizhavan

The Vel, Lord Muruga’s weapon, has been worshipped as the presiding deity in the shrine since time immemorial. 

Lord Murugan is known as Kurinji Nilam Kizhavan in this temple, and he is accompanied by his consorts Valli and Devayani, the only temple among the six abodes where Murugan alongside his consorts blesses his devotees.
