Typically, people come to Kanyakumari as part of a religious pilgrimage but even if that is not the case, you should not miss out on visiting the Kumari Amman Temple which is one of the must-see places in the town. Located close to the sea shore, the temple has a beautiful aspect and there are thousands of tourists who come here to pay their respects. There are numerous myths and beliefs associated with the temple which have added to its allure. However, entry into the temple is only restricted to Hindus and people of other religions are not allowed inside.
The Lord Subramanya Temple has numerous pillars and towers and during festivals and other such events, the temple is quite crowded. In fact, during certain religious holidays it might well be impossible to enter the temple, although reaching it is quite easy, either by bus or train. The Thirunandhikarai Cave Temple is another prime example of magnificent temples that you can find in south India. This temple worships Lord Shiva and is built in the Kerala style.
