Hinduism - What Is A Kalyanamandapam In Tamil?

 


Kalyanamandapam ("marriage hall") is a Tamil word that means "marriage hall." 

One of the most prevalent architectural characteristics of Dravida-style temples in southern India.

On festival days, the kalyanamandapam is a hall where the major deity's image and that deity's spouse may be ceremonially combined to signify their married condition.
