Hindu Temples in Coimbatore

Coimbatore lies in the Kongu region of western Tamil Nadu, at the foot of the Nilgiri and Anaimalai ranges, and serves as a gateway to several long-established hill-temple pilgrimage circuits. The city’s most-visited Hindu temple is the Marudamalai Murugan Temple — a hilltop shrine to Murugan that draws large crowds during Thaipusam and Skanda Sashti — while the ancient Perur Pateeswarar Temple, with parts dating to the early Chola period, is among the oldest active Shiva temples in the region. Other notable temples in the directory include the Eachanari Vinayagar Temple and dense networks of neighbourhood Amman, Vinayagar, and Murugan shrines distributed across Coimbatore’s urban suburbs and surrounding villages. The page covers temples in the city proper and its closer suburbs.
