  The most famous Hindu temple in Jaffna district. The annual festival that comes in August - September season attracts thousands of pilgrims. The 25 days long festival ends on the New Moon day of the month of 'Avani' of Hindu calendar. The chariot festival on the 24th day attracts the largest crowd.

  Religious place of hindu devotees. Its really peaceful place. If you are male and if you wish to go inside of the kovil you have to remove your up cloths. Females are welcome with charming clothes. I think this kovil closed on 18.00 hrs. Most of the hindu devotees are visiting this place.

  The temple depicts the grandeur of the culture and life style of the Tamils. Administration of the temple is exemplary. Though it has become a tourist attraction it still helps the devotees pray Lord Skandan.

  Nallur Kovil is the most famous Kovil in Jaffna peninsula, However it's not the largest Kovil in the peninsula. You need to find out open & close times if you want to worship inside the kovil. Generally the outer area can be visited from 8am to 6pm.
