Overview

The Six Abodes of Murugan are six temples situated in the state of Tamil Nadu in South India. The six most sacred abodes of Murugan were mentioned in Tamil Sangam literature, "Thirumurugatrupadai", written by Nakkeerar and in "Thiruppugazh", written by Arunagirinathar. The six abodes are Thiruparankundram, Tiruchendur, Palani, Swamimalai, Thiruthani and Pazhamudircholai. These six abodes are called “Aarupadai Veedu” which in translation means the "Six War Houses Of The Lord". These six abodes attract thousands of followers from across the world, although there are countless temples dedicated to Muruga, who happens to be the son of Lord Shiva and Parvathi. In Tamil Nadu, these six specific temples are considered very important amongst the devotees and hence, deserve a special mention.
