Thiruvalluvar Temple


Thiruvalluvar Temple is a Hindu temple in the neighbourhood of Mylapore in Chennai, India. The shrine is dedicated to the poet-saint Thiruvalluvar. Believed to have been constructed in the early 16th century, the temple was extensively renovated in the 1970s.

The temple is located in a narrow lane adjacent to the Valluvar statue on Royapettah High Road. The temple is located on a sprawling ground with exclusive sanctums for various deities, namely, Lord Ganesha, Subramanya, Shiva and Parvathi, and separate sanctums for Thiruvalluvar and his consort Vasugi. Classes on the Tirukkural are also held in the evenings for children.
