Consecrated on 12th December, 1857, its official designation is Nattukottai Chettiar’s Sri Thandayuthapani Temple and it is commonly called Thanneermalai Temple. This temple was built in the chokkattan-style (a layout similar to a plus sign) and is mostly made of Burmese teak, from its roof to its pillars. On the walls hang hundreds of religious paintings. It is the centre of the annual Thaipusam festival in Penang (which is attended by over 100,000 people), with a gate leading up to Waterfall Hilltop Temple, the destination of the procession from Penang’s Sri Mariamman Temple in Little India.
