Thiruvalluvar Temple, Hindu temple in Mylapore, Chennai, India
The Thiruvalluvar Temple features traditional Dravidian architecture with stone carvings depicting scenes from Tamil literature and Hindu mythology throughout its structure.
The temple was built to honor Thiruvalluvar, a Tamil poet from the early Common Era who composed the Thirukkural, containing 1,330 couplets of moral teachings.
