The Meenakshi Sundareshwar Temple is one of the most significant religious sites in India; the temple is devoted to Goddess Parvati and Lord Shiva. Pay obeisance to them and also to several gods and goddesses in smaller shrines within the complex.
The temple is famous all over for its awe-inspiring architecture. Its construction started two millennia back; additions by different monarchs extended its overall built-up area to about 65000 sq metres! Marvel at the 'Golden Lotus Tank' and the 'Thousand Pillar Hall'; the pillars seen from any corner are aligned. Also, the musical stone pillars bedeck the passageways of the peripheral courtyards. The temple has twelve gopurams (pyramidal towers) embellished with amazing figures.
