Kurukkuthurai
temple
is
situated
on
the
banks
of
Thamirabarani
river.
Its
speciality
is
that
you
can
directly
drive
your
two
wheeler
or
car
on
to
the
banks
of
the
river
inside
the
city
of
Tirunelveli.
During
heavy
rains,
the
temple
gets
submerged
in
water.
The
stone
mandapam
is
always
partially
submerged
in
water.
Children
can
safely
take
bath
inside
the
small
water
channels
which
flow
through
the
stone
pillars.
This
temple
is
dedicated
to
Lord
Muruga.
The
water
quality
is
poor
due
to
contamination.
Hopefully
it
will
improve
after
the
Thamirabarani
Pushkaram,
a
special
worship
and
celebration
to
the
12
sacred
rivers
of
India,
which
happens
once
in
144
years.
It
will
be
celebrated
on
September
11–22,
2018.
This
is
a
once
in
a
lifetime
opportunity
to
realise
the
great
role
these
rivers
have
been
playing
in
the
development
of
human
civilizations
over
thousands
of
years
and
to
respect
them
so
that
we
can
preserve
their
cleanliness
and
water
flow
for
many
more
generations
to
come.
🙏
