Kalikambal Temple, Hindu temple in Parry's Corner, Chennai, India.
The temple features a 10-meter-high tower with intricate carvings and sculptures representing traditional South Indian architectural elements and mythological scenes.
The temple relocated from its original location near the shore to its current site in March 1640 when the British East India Company constructed Fort St. George.
The Tamil devotional hymn Ullam Uruguthaiya, composed by Andavan Picchi in 1952, originated within the sacred premises of this temple.
The temple opens daily for worship with specific dress requirements, and visitors can purchase traditional offerings from the surrounding market stalls.
The main deity Kalikambal stands with Thirusiran at her feet, while the procession deity Periyanayaki appears in standing position on a chariot.
