Kaithamalai

Kaithamalai 
Kaithamalai Sri Vetri Velayudaswamy Temple, Uthukuli
MURUGAN TEMPLE,UTHUKULI,TIRUPPUR
Once the famous saint Agastiyar came to this place for meditation but was not able to find water. He prayed to Lord Muruga to help him. Soon Lord Muruga appeared before him and thrust His lance (Vel) in the sand. Soon water spring came from the spot. That place is called “Uthukuli”, later on it came to be called as Uthukuli.No one knows when the temple was built in Kaithamalai, just they have the history. But only 200 years before some rural kings built the temple and five years before with the help of some donors the temple was rebuilt and now it is the Important spiritual place in Tiruppur District. Daily more than 200 people visit Uthukuli Murugan Temple. The

Important things is that only in Kaithamalai that is Uthukuli the temple car is in the hill and devotees pull the temple car in the slopes. No place in the world where a temple car is pulled in the hill. Then the God is called as Vetri Velayudha Swami? and the Temple is called Kaithamalai Murugan Temple?. Uthukuli Murugan Temple is situated 15 kilometres from Tiruppur city...
