You will go past villages in the countryside of the South Indian state of Tamil Nadu.

The temple is situated on the top of a hill. For the devout pilgrims there are steps leading to the temple. Others can choose between a rope car and a funicular railway. There are 38 sub-temples attached to the main temple. The idol in the main temple is made of an amalgam of nine poisonous substances which when combined in a certain ratio form a potent medicine. Pilgrims flock to this temple and get tonsured here in order to pay their respects to Lord Murugan. Once your tour will be finished you will be driven back to fixed point / your hotel.

About Coimbatore
Coimbatore is a textile and engineering city in western Tamil Nadu, set below the Nilgiri hills at the edge of the Palakkad Gap.
Coimbatore, known locally as Kovai, lies beside the Noyyal river with the Western Ghats rising to the west and north, and a gap in the hills lets in cooling breezes. It built its name on cotton mills and engineering workshops, which earned it the title of the Manchester of South India. Temples include the Marudhamalai Murugan temple on a hill and the Perur Pateeswarar temple, with finely carved pillars.
