Hinduism - What Is Tripura In Hindu Mythology?

Tripura is a Sanskrit word that means "three cities." 

The triple metropolis erected by the three sons of the demon Taraka: Kamalaksha, Tarakaksha, and Vidyunmali, according to Hindu legend.

As a consequence of Shiva's destruction of the demons' three cities, one of Shiva's epithets is Tripurari, which means "Enemy of the Three Cities."
