Idumban is like a demigod who when shifting two mountains to South side wanted to take rest and put the two mountains down but when tried to carry the mountains didn't budge and settled as palani hill and idumban hill . This is one among the stories of the god here. Serene place.
A nice temple on the way to the main temple.
Good vibes temple
Nice place i like...
Visit to Idumban temple was unexpected but later this place was in the top priority while visiting Palani . It will take good 20-30 minutes to manure top of the steps but trust me its worthy . Idol is six feet high and it has several stories which was explained by the poojari . The temple is generally not frequented by tourists. If you don't have time you can skip the visit to this temple. There are about 500 steps to the top & the place gives good view of the Palani Hills & the city.
Holy place getting spoiled by some strangers. Government has to take care of this temple.
PEACEFUL ENVIRONMENT we take rest here for a few minutes and continue Hill climbing to the top.
