Siruvapuri Sri Balasubrahmanyam temple, Hindu temple in Siruvapuri, India.
The temple features a 108-foot-tall entrance tower decorated with stone carvings and contains a six-faced emerald idol of Lord Murugan in the main shrine.
The temple dates back to the 13th century when the Pandya Dynasty constructed it following the guidance of sages seeking Lord Murugan's protection against regional demons.
The Kandha Sashti festival brings thousands of devotees who carry Kavadis during a six-day celebration featuring ceremonial chariot processions through the streets.
The temple opens daily from 7 AM to noon and 4:30 PM to 8 PM, with extended hours on Tuesdays and Sundays when it remains accessible from 7 AM to 8 PM.
The temple contains a tank named Saravana Poigai with water believed to possess healing properties and a special enclosure for the Navagraha deities under a roofed structure.
