The world's tallest statue is at Sri Muthumalai Murugan Temple in Tamil Nadu. Always with love

The world's tallest Murugan statue was unveiled at Puthirakavundampalayam in Salem district of Tamil Nadu. The statue is 146 feet tall. Built by a trust in Puthirakaundanpalayam, this statue is taller than the 140-foot-tall Batumalai Murugan statue in Malaysia. It seems that the Murugan statue in Malaysia inspired Sridhar to build this statue in Salem, as not everyone can go to Malaysia and worship the deity there, so he thought of bringing one to Salem district. N. Sridhar, chairman of the Sri Muthumalai Murugan Trust, wanted to erect the tallest Murugan statue in his hometown of Athur Then in 2014, Sridhar decided to build a temple and a Murugan statue on his land. Sridhar hired Thiruvarur Thyagarajan to build the statue. Interestingly, he is the same sculptor who built the Murugan statue in Malaysia in 2006. The statue took almost two years to build. Consecrated in April 2022, the statue is located in Puthiragoundampalayam, near Ethapur, on the Salem-Chennai national highway, and features the deity holding a large spear in one hand and making a blessing gesture with the other. An elevator is available to take devotees up to 120 feet to get a closer look at the statue. 6:00 AM to 9:30 PM every day of the week #TamilNadu #Puthirakavundampalayam #Salem #SriMuthumalaiMuruganstatue #Ethapur #Statue #BatumalaiMuruganstatueinMalaysia #Batumalai #Murugan #statue #in #Malaysia Always with love‪@balas167‬
