Badrakali Amman temple, Sivakasi, Hindu temple in Sivakasi, India.
The temple features a five-tiered gopuram gateway tower measuring 110 feet in height, with intricate carvings depicting Hindu deities and mythological scenes.
Built in the 18th century, the temple gained significance during the social tensions between Nadars and Maravars, leading to the Sivakasi riots of 1899.
Four daily ceremonies take place in the temple, with Panguni Pongal and Chithirai Pongal festivals drawing thousands of devotees throughout the year.
The temple opens twice daily, from 6 AM to 12 PM and 5 PM to 8:30 PM, extending its hours during new moon days for additional ceremonies.
The main shrine houses Badrakali Amman in a seated position facing north, with additional sanctums dedicated to Ayyappa, Murugan, and Agora Murthy.
