The history of Tamil and Tamil Nadu without Madurai is impossible. One of India’s greatest temples Madurai Meenakshi Amman, exquisite interiors of Thirumalai Nayak Mahal, historic tales of Gandhi Museum, architectural excellence of Koodal Azhagar Temple, and one of the six abodes of Lord Murugan – Pazhamudir Solai are found in the “Pancha Sthala” land of Madurai.
