Religion and Spirituality in Kanyakumari, Tamil Nadu
two local expertsLeave a comment
Kanyakumari is a coastal town in the state of Tamil Nadu on India’s southern tip. Jutting into the Laccadive Sea, the town was known as Cape Comorin during British rule and is popular for watching sunrise and sunset over the ocean. It’s also a noted pilgrimage site thanks to its Bhagavathi Amman Temple, dedicated to a consort of Shiva, and it’s Our Lady of Ransom Church, a center of Indian Catholicism.
Kanyakumari is also called God’s own country, you may guess whether it is Kerala but it is not. Almost me have the same climatic condition as Kerala does. We have lot of traditions, different cultures and even different languages. Most probably tamil and Malayalam. We are a peninsular district surrounded by three different oceans.
