#MayuranathaswamyTemple, #Mayiladuthurai or #MayuranatharTemple is a #HinduTemple in the town of #Mayiladuthurai (formerly known as #Mayavaram or #Mayuram) in #TamilNadu, India. The temple is dedicated to #LordMayuranathaswamy, a form of Shiva, and has given its name to the town itself. The main icon is a lingam and the presiding deity is called #Mayuranathar because the Hindu goddess Parvathi worshipped Shiva here in the form of a mayura. On the day of the new moon in the Tamil month of Aippasi (November–December), religious Hindus have a ceremonial bath in the temple tank as it is believed to purify them from sins. An annual dance festival called the #MayuraNatyanjaliFestival is celebrated within the precincts of the temple each year.
