History & tradition
Subramaniya Swamy Temple stands on a hillock at Tiruttani in the Tiruvallur district of Tamil Nadu. It is dedicated to Murugan and is one of his Six Abodes. Tradition says Murugan came to Tiruttani to calm his anger after defeating the asura Surapadman, and that he married Valli here. In this temple he is shown holding a vajra vel rather than his usual spear, and his mount is an elephant instead of the peacock. The temple is administered by the Hindu Religious and Charitable Endowments Department of Tamil Nadu.
