About
Subramaniya Swamy Temple is a Hindu temple located on a hillock in Tiruttani, Tiruvallur district, Tamil Nadu, India. It is dedicated to Murugan, and is one of the six abodes of Murugan (Arupadaiveedu). As per Hindu mythology, Murugan came to Tiruttani after killing Surapadman to subside his anger. He also married Valli at the location. In the temple, Murugan is seen holding a vajra vel (thunderbolt) instead of his normal weapon (vel), and has an elephant mount (vahana) instead of his usual peacock mount.
