Thiruchendur is a beautiful coastal town in Tamil Nadu, famous for the Thiruchendur Murugan Temple, one of the six holy abodes of Lord Murugan. The temple stands right on the shore of the Bay of Bengal, where the sound of waves and temple bells blend perfectly. According to legend, Lord Murugan defeated the demon Surapadman here, and the site has been sacred ever since. Devotees come to take a holy dip in the sea before offering prayers. The calm beach, ancient temple, and peaceful surroundings make Thiruchendur a special place of faith and natural beauty.
