Hidden fact about Thiruchendur Murugan Temple:
One of the little-known facts about the Thiruchendur Murugan Temple is that it is one of the six holy sites of Lord Murugan, popularly known as the "six abodes" of Lord Murugan or Arupadai Veedu.
According to legend, Kulasekara, the Pandya King, constructed the temple in the seventh century.

The temple, also known as
 "Thiruchendur Arulmigu Subramaniaswamy Temple," 
is one of Tamil Nadu's most well-known places of worship for Lord Murugan.
The temple is renowned for its exquisite wall, pillar, and gopuram carvings as well as its stunning architecture.
The "Sengamal Theertham," a sizable tank in the temple, is said to have therapeutic properties.
Numerous smaller shrines to other gods, including Lord Ganesha, Lord Shiva, and Lord Vishnu, are also housed in the temple.

One little-known truth is that Lord Ganesha has a small cave shrine called the "Vinayagar Cave Temple" inside the larger temple complex.
