Alagar Koyil

Alagar Koyil is suituated in the outskirts of the South Indian City of Madurai.

Alagar is the brother of Goddess Meenakshi (Goddess with fish shaped eyes). Every year Meenakshi Kalayalam (Meenakshi's Marriage) is re-enacted in the Madurai Meenakshi Temple. The Kall-Alagar (Stone Alagar) procession takes place during that season, where Alagar crosses Vaigai to attend his sister's marriage. But, he quickly turns back in anger as he was not given a formal welcome.
