Arulmigu Maha Muthu Mariamman Thevasthanam, Hindu temple in Kopisan Baru, Kampar District, Malaysia.
Arulmigu Maha Muthu Mariamman Thevasthanam is a Hindu temple in Kampar featuring traditional South Indian architectural style with carved deity figures and ornamental details adorning its surfaces. The complex includes spaces for worship, community gatherings, and religious learning activities.
The sanctuary was founded in 1962 as Kaliamman Kovil on donated land by the local community. Major renovation work took place in 2006, after which it received its current name in 2009.
The temple is dedicated to Goddess Mariamman, a deity revered by the local community for her protective power. Devotees gather here to perform prayers and maintain traditional Hindu observances throughout the year.
Visitors should note entry rules and designated areas, which are typically well marked at the site. Weekday visits or attendance during religious festivals offer the most engaging experience of the community and its practices.
During the 2010 consecration ceremony, a group of eagles circled above the temple, which participants viewed as a sign of divine presence. This unexpected natural event remains memorable to visitors and is often recounted as a special moment.
