💡 Travel Tips
💰 Visit during off-season months (March-April) to enjoy lower accommodation rates and fewer crowds while still experiencing the town's spiritual atmosphere and temple grandeur.
📅 December to February is ideal as the weather is pleasant and the Margazhi season brings classical music and dance performances. Avoid May to September due to extreme heat and monsoon rains that make temple visits uncomfortable.
