Tirunelveli Temple & River Day Trip
Tirunelveli’s Nellaiappar temple is a twin shrine to Shiva and his consort, joined by a hall with a thousand carved pillars and a musical pillar that rings when struck. It sits beside the Tamiraparani, the river the town was built along, and the surrounding country is old Pandya land with a distinct food culture — Tirunelveli halwa is famous across the south.
