All Hinduism (Tamil diaspora) Sites

Hindu sacred sites built by and for Tamil communities outside India, most prominently in Southeast Asia, rather than sites within the Tamil homeland itself. Batu Caves in Malaysia, a limestone hill shrine to Murugan and the focus of the annual Thaipusam festival, is the entry that anchors this grouping. The distinction from the broader Hindu Sites category is the diaspora setting: a site raised by a community that carried its worship abroad rather than one standing in the subcontinent.
