About

Pazhamudhircholai is the last of the Arupadai Veedu (Six Abodes of Lord Murugan), situated atop densely forested hills near Alagar Kovil north of Madurai. The shrine is famous in Tamil literature for the legend of Lord Murugan testing the wisdom of the ancient poetess Avvaiyar under a jambu tree.
