AREAS IN CHENNAI

 

VADAPALANI

Vadapalani exists as one of the suburban regions in the city of Chennai. The locality is housed in the western precincts of the city. For reference, the adjoining areas Vadapalani include Mambalam, K.K.Nagar and Nungambakkam. The place is connected by roads and railways to other regions of the city.

One of the most popular attraction in the city suburbs is the Vadapalani Temple. The temple, built some 125 years ago, houses the image of most revered deity of Tamil Nadu, Lord Muruga. The temple is one of the frequently visited worshipping places in Chennai. With approximately 7,000 marriage ceremonies being performed here, the statement stands justified.

Vadapalani derives its name from Vadapalani (North Palani) temple. Though the Vadapalani temple [1] is definitely the most famous, Vengeeswarar temple is probably older and a Chozha period structure with the "Gajabrishta Vimanam" (known as "Thoonganai Maadam" in Tamil) as it looks like the back of a sleeping elephant.
