Swamimalai Murugan Temple is a Hindu temple located in the township of Swamimalai, 250 km from Chennai and is very close to Thanjavur and Kumbakonam in India.

It is one of the Arupadaiveedu, believed to be the six main abodes of Muruga. According to Hindu belief, Swamimalai is where Muruga preached to his own father, Shiva, at a tender age.
