This place is an evening visit relaxing area with exuberant view of clouds during sunset and the beauty of centre situated temple inside the pond. There are many snacks and evening bites shops available around this area which makes perfect pair for the evenings.

It was an absolutely fantastic experience visiting this beautiful lake during my recent solo motorcycle ride to Tamil Nadu. I visited it after Meenakshi Temple to soak in the vibes of Madurai amidst all the hustle bustle. And I experienced all of it! I enjoyed a long walk around the lake, it was almost 5 kms long. The crowd was enjoying the vibes just like me. It's definitely a must visit place for everyone visiting Madurai. 100% recommended.

I had been here during evening and this was a very pleasant place with busy eateries around and small amusements for the kids. There are lot of options for eatables and the view of the kolam at night is very nice. All the edges of the kulam has one or the other highlights be it temple , eateries , amusements for kids. Should visit for people who have not been to teppakulam earlier.

This is awesome place in Madurai... This is like a Marina Beach for Madurai Peoples... This place is looking much greater now after having water inside so everyone has to visit here to have better time... I'm pretty sure this place gives u a happiness that you are looking for!

Yes of course I wanted to see the temple but i couldn't. The temple is in the water and we can only reach there by boat, and boats are available on Sundays only. So we saw the closed temple only I hope it must be great. After all this a temple is a temple... Keep in mind if you are visiting Madurai visit this temple only on Sunday. These 3 stars are not for temple but the regret i couldn't get in there.

nice place to go in eveing but there is traffic all around it and remember u cant go for a boat ride and inside the temple only for special event only and water is dirty u can smell dead fish

Awesome place, must visit, one of the best place for photoshoot in madurai...u can spend one hour here...

Nice

Teppakulam is the location where the king Thirumalai Naicker excavated the soil to fabricate the bricks required for constructing his palace, Thirumalai Nayakkar Mahal. The pit that was thus formed is seen as tank now. It is approximately 305 m long and 290 m wide.

Dint got much opportunity to explore these place these place is completely damage no water around thz tomb it’s completely dry . Local People just destroyed these place by all the waste material around these premises. Tourism department should take care before it becomes dump yard ....

Now it's with clean atmosphere. Every one can spend their time round the pool.

One of the good locations to spend your evening in Madurai. You will get a lot of chat items around the walking path. Boating is also available now. Can soend 1-2 hours calmly.

Morning It's Like Walking And Mind Relaxing Place. Evening It's Like Food Street And Entertaining Place.

Peaceful place with two famous temple near. Mariamman temple and Muktheeswarar Temple. Nice place to walk and enjoy your evening time with family. Saturday and Sunday is always very rush with snacks stalls like soup, masala puri, pani puri, boli stall, fast food like fried rice , french fries, noodles, ice cream, fruit salad with ice cream, and good entertainment for kids like ball pit, kids train, Ratinam and Horse Ride.

Awesome place to spend the weekends, around the Teppakulam we could see a lot of small food shops and chat shops, we roam around there for some time and had tried a few food items.

Wonderful place to be in the evening to sunset. Evening breeze makes it even prettier. We visited on weekday and there is no crowd at all. It’s easy to get vehicle from or to Madurai due to its popularity.

One of the scenic place located in Madurai. The place theppakulam, Theppa means a small boat made out of bamboo or similar materials, kulam meaning Pond was built during the regime of the Nayakas. The pond gets its water from the river Vaigai. The water path also was channelized during the Nayakas rule. The theppotsavam, also known as the float festival attracts scores of people from Madurai and surrounding villages and is one the eye catching event in Madurai after the Chitrai festival.

Beautiful and calm place. Evenings are very pleasant and mind soothing at this place. You can walk all around this temple (outside boundary to the lake). Cool breeze, pleasant lighting adds up to the beauty of this place.

Big teppakulam.

Good place to spend with family and enjoy foods and child's playing things

Mariamman Teppakulam Mariamman Teppakulam is a beautiful square tank spread over a huge area of almost 16 acres, located about 4 Kms East of Meenakshi Temple in Madurai City.  The tank is the scene of the colourful float festival held in January/February to celebrate the birth anniversary of King Thirumalai Nayak, who built this tank.  The deities of Meenakshi and Sundareswarar are placed in a float, called “Teppam”, decorated with flowers and illuminated with hundred of lights.  This float is taken around the tank to the sound of traditional music.  On the Northern side of the tank a temple is dedicated to Mariamman , a famous village deity of Tamil Nadu.

Great spot to hang out with friends and family in a fine evening. Windy ambience, snack stalls all around with a beautiful temple located in the middle of a pond. Famous teppam festival is world famous.

If you like boat raiding you can visit day time. If you want eat different type of snacks you must visit night time. I reffer you to visit this place only on night time.

Calm and mind relaxing place Always be happy 😊😊😊 Fun guaranteed....night time Vera level

The overall place is good to spend some time , but there are no proper arrangements to sit

Went on a Sunday evening. Not sure about other days but there was no transportation to the temple. Good space to have street food by the shore with ample sitting space available. The temple looks grand.

Temple is open noon also. Opposite to Theppakulam. Must visit temple in Madurai.

Beautiful tank with temple at centre. Its a super place foe entertainment and time passing at evening with fam members. Lotz and lotz of shops are there for play, snack, dinner.

Now a days.. Most important and lovely evening place of madurai is our theppakulam. Because ambiance like mini food street. 😍😇lovely place

Love the sprucing up done here..the area around the teppakulam is well lighted and clean. It had a beach feel with cool breeze over water and lots of food stalls. Ideal for a lazy outing with family but better to go post sunset.

Best place for entertainment but only in evening time... especially boat rides...but there is no place for shelter during sunny days...

This’s the best sight view place in the middle of the Madurai city. ➡️ Everyone who sees this place would like to click a pic here. 📸 ➡️ Nice place to sit around the Pond (theppakuzham) and wander your thoughts. ➡️ must visit place when you are at Madurai.

A great picnic spot in Madurai. A go to place to spend quality time with family. Spot is full of Street food shops to tickle your tastebuds. It consists of right amount of entertainment for people of every age.

This place is situated in the southeast direction from maatuthavani bus stand. If you are travelling from maatuthavani to Meenakshi Amman temple , then you can have a look at it on the way. Madurai Thiagaraja college is located nearby this lake. A square shaped lake in which there is a garden like structure in the middle of this lake. You can find seating structures to sit on the shores of this lake. I went here on September 2022, there is no proper parking here. Riding on two wheeler is advisable. As there are no trees present near by, a sunny morning may scorch you if you want to spend time here. This place will be awesome on evenings and nights. Don't forget to spend sometime here on the evenings if you go to madurai.

A beauty where nature and man's efforts combine to soothe the hearts and souls of those who spend some time here. We went during the evening time which added to the magic of the place. Boating is available for ₹20, which is hardly 10 minutes, but still an enjoyable experience. The person who manned the boat on the day we went was very grumpy, but other staff were friendly and helpful. A wonderful place to sit and spend some time.

Love this place pleasant area to wander at evening times. Do a visit.

Large Pond full of water inside City gives lovely feeling. Many people visit this place daily for evening time pass and walking. Most devotees visit this place daily to pray Mariamman, Karuppadeamy and Muktheeswarar temple. Many educational institutions surrounding this temple and bond, so around 2000 people exactly roaming in this place daily🎉

What more do you need when you have a lake,fresh air and eateries near thepakulam. The best place to sit and relax with your friends and enjoy the peacefulness

Beautiful. It's a old temple built by Thirumala Naikkan, located middle of a manmade pond. The temple and surroundings looks very beautiful. The main attraction is the side walk ways, and the space to sit. People usually comes here in the evening and sits for long time. Best for family, friends, couples etc. One side it has street foods, many street vendors etc. There is a temple opposite to this pond, built on ancient Dravidian architecture. Parking space is available near to the police station. In the evening it's best to take a walk around.
