Tiruverkadu Devi Karumariamman Temple, Hindu temple in Tiruverkadu, Tamil Nadu, India
The Dravidian-style temple features intricate stone carvings, a sacred ash tank, multiple shrines, and a towering entrance gate called Rajagopuram.
The temple originated from an anthill where devotees worshipped the goddess until she appeared in a dream requesting the construction of a formal shrine.
Devotees gather in large numbers during the Tamil month of Panguni for the annual festival, which includes religious processions and traditional performances.
The temple stands 20 kilometers from Chennai city center, with regular bus services and parking facilities available for visitors throughout the day.
Sunlight falls directly on the deity's head twice per year, creating a natural phenomenon that draws numerous followers to witness this occurrence.
