As usual, people are not allowed in their usual dress like other temples in south India. I just hate this part. They want us to come vare chest and lungi in front of ladies and specially in this temple which belongs to Kumari Kanya. There is forced fees at the entry and when you ask why are you taking it then they say it's volunteer fees for Mantainenece. I mean I just don't understand if they do have money for maintaining this temple. Really, govt is not giving them any grants or they have no wealth inside or people do not donate. I find it waste but religiously I found it good. See God is equal for every one, poor or rich, young or old, make it female. But these useless pandits there are greedy.

* Don't take photos inside the temple, the temple management authority is very strict with this rule, they will sieze your phones. * There is a counter for keeping your chappals outside the temple and a bag counter when you just enter the temple. * Ladoo and many Prasad items are there to buy . * Men should remove shirt and banyan before entering the temple. * Near to kanyakumari bus stand and triveni sangam. * Many hotels and restaurants when you walk through the streets towards the temple entrance. * Sunrise point towards left side of the temple.

Very pleasant place. There are some strict dress code to follow here. Men should be shirtless inside the temple. There is a counter outside to keep your footwear. There is also a bag counter. On the way to the temple, there are so many shops. Photos are not allowed to be taken inside the temple.

The temple's cleanliness and upkeep are commendable. The temple grounds are well-maintained, making for a pleasant visit. The Kanyakumari Temple is a place of great cultural and spiritual significance. I left the temple feeling enlightened and grateful for the experience. Finally the Diamond nose ring, it is said to be adorned on the nose of the goddess, and it is considered to be a symbol of her power and grace.

Very beautiful ancient temple. Worth it to see the Goddess with diamond nose ring. Went early morning at 8am didnt have to wait. Men not allowed in with shirts. As usual everyone will hound you to buy things pr take photos Still worth a visit

Very religious place, temple is very old its open at Morning 4:30 am - 12:00 noon and then 4:00 pm to 8:30 at night. There are very strict dressing code for men. They have to visit shirtless in temple and it is compulsory for all mens.

Brilliant Shakti peeth! The inside could do with a little bit of cleaning. Plastic bottles thrown here and there. Isn’t very nice. But you really do get a lovely darshan for 20 bucks per person. No photography allowed inside the main temple. But truly is a beautiful goddess ♥️worth the visit 100000%

Kanyakumari Bhagavathi Amman Temple in Kanyakumari, Tamil Nadu, India is of being mesmerized by the stone idol of the Goddess inside the sanctum sanctorum. In the semi-dark sanctum, a ray of light fell on the face of the deity, and suddenly the nose ring that adorned her shone brilliantly, illuminating her face. The eyes of the deity shone with a divine lustre in the light reflected by the diamond-studded nose ring, and tears rolled down our faces, tears of pure bliss. Such is the effect of Devi Kanyakumari, at the Bhagavathy Amman Temple, Kanyakumari. One can only imagine the effect that the Kanyakumari Temple and the Goddess Kanya Kumari (Virgin Goddess), must have had on the great Swami Vivekananda in the year 1892, when he visited and meditated at the temple, before swimming to the rock, now known as Vivekananda Rock Memorial.

➡️The temple is so peaceful and located beside the beach. ➡️ Only traditional dresses are allowed for both men and women.(men should remove their shirts inside the temple) ➡️They charge you ₹20 during darshan to skip the queue and can go close to the Devi vigraham.

Temple is made of beautifully inscribed stone. The inside of temple premise has huge stone pillars takes you back to ancient times feels like time travel. This Temple is of devi bhagawathy kanyakumari build by sri parshuram surrounded by huge block of stone walls. Prasadam is offered at the back side of temple premises where seating arrangements are there. Temple closes by 12 noon and reopens at 4:00 pm evening.

Went in the morning at 6am and the rush was very low. Had an amazing darshan of Devi Kanyakumari. The dress code follows like mens have to br shirtless (bare body) and no such code like jeans or dhoti or anything. For women no such code. After you finish you darshana do have a spectacular view of the sunrise and have so time to give a walk around the premises where you can see triveni sangam and the tsunami memorial point

Good place. I loved the fact that unlike eastern and Northern India they do not force the devotees to buy offerings from them or offer anything to devi. If you want you can, otherwise no one forces you. Male devotees must go bare chest inside temple. Women can wear any traditional cloth. Temple closes in the noon and open in the afternoon again till 8 pm.

If you are visiting to kanyakumari then must visit this place. Its in walkable distance from Vivekananda rock memorable.

Good vibes. We visited around 9am, there was no long queue even though it was Sunday morning. There is shops outside to keep footwear, buy prasathams and archana thali ( flowers, coconut, ....).Men can't enter inside temple wearing shirts and t-shirts. And everybody should keep phone on silent mode while darshan.

5 star for ancient temple and God. Illegal money collected to enter by local people. Chappal stand is there to keep foot wear. Temple Poojari gives kumkum to only those who put dakashina in plate. More money more sophisticated way of giving kumkum in banana leaf or just dump in hand. Attitude of Pujaris in Tamil Nadu temples is worst 😑. Need to remove shirt before entering so that pujaris can identify caste by jenevari community and give them special treatment. Horrible practice.

Jai Kanyakumari Devi 🙏 The temple is so beautiful. The peaceful environment is full of positive energy. You can submit your belongings inside temple for just Rs 10/- counter charges. It's better to visit in 🌅 Morning.

Temple is one of the 51 Shakti Peethams. It's specially for Amman Mookuthi(Nose Ring). Temple is to be big and we got nice view of sea also.

This temple is one of the most important Shakti peetams of Tamilnadu. It is also a popular pilgrimage as well as tourist destination. It is located right on the shore. Bhagavathi Amman (an incarnation of Devi Parvathi) meditated here to marry Shiva. When there was a slight hiccup in the plans, she got angry and threw away all the preparations into the sea which is why the beach has various coloured sands stained by Turmeric (haldi/manjal), kunkumam (sindoor) and other items. One unique feature in this temple is the nose ring of Devi which is so lustrous that it caused ships to crash into the shore. The paid queue for darshan is 20 rupees. There is also a free queue available. Parking can be done at the main road. The road in front of the temple is filled with shops and restaurants.
