About
The Teppakulam Mariamman Temple stands beside the Teppakulam (temple tank) in Tiruchirappalli, dedicated to the Goddess Mariamman, a form of the Mother Goddess widely venerated in Tamil Nadu.
The annual Float Festival here draws enormous crowds as the deity is taken on a flower-decorated float on the tank. Mariamman temples represent the deep-rooted folk religious traditions that blend with classical temple architecture in Tamil Nadu.
