Sri Muthumalai Murugan Kovil, Salem Murugan Temple - Hindu temple in Yethappur - Salem, India

This towering Murugan statue stands as the tallest of its kind. Notably, the same architect responsible for the renowned statue in Batu Caves, Malaysia, crafted this impressive monument. However, it's essential to be aware that the temple and its surroundings have undergone significant commercialization, resembling more of an exhibition space than a serene temple. During festivals and functions, the temple becomes overwhelmingly crowded, causing traffic jams of up to 1-2 kilometers on both sides of the highway leading to the entrance. While parking is available near the temple, you may end up parking on the highway itself.

World's tallest Murugan statue, nice temple. Large space for car parking is also free of cost. Paid Rest room facilities are available. Small restaurants are there it's just ok. Annadhanam also available from 12pm to 2.30pm. The temple is open from 6am to 9pm. There are no hyundial and you can donate via gpay. Very good vibes must visit at least once.

The very beautiful structure of the murugan statue , still needs to develop more like the road and direction for the temple .

Muthumalai Murugan statue is the worlds tallest Murugan statue at a height of 146ft, people who are not able to visit Batu Murugan temple in Malaysia can witness the same here, very well maintained temple and definitely a eye catching figure. Must visit temple when your in Salem.

This is the tallest Murugan Statue with 146 ft. This place is maintained well and it is a best place for every Murugan devotees to visit. The Murugan statuse is show the remarkable presence of lord. This place is good for a family visit. There is a small mountain behind the statue. We can climb up the mountain also. There is a temple at top of the mountain. Down there is a mandapam where long traveller's and normal people can rest. The diviness of lord Muruga is everywhere in this place. To visit up on the statue you need to pay Rs. 250/- for each head (both for lift or steps). It's better to visit this place to encounter the extraordinary appearance of Lord Muruga. This would be a great place to worship lord and enjoy his divinely presence. Vetri Vel Muruganuku Haro Hara !!!

It was good but could've been better, if they had arranged a roof for sunlight ( it was scorching hot especially on that day), drinking water facility and proper arrangement and direction for slipper stand was really necessary.

A 146-foot tall idol of Lord Murugan which is said to be the world's tallest Murugan idol.....felt blessed to visit lord Murugan!!
