Description
St. Thomas Mount is a small hillock located in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India. Located near the neighbourhood of Guindy and very close to Chennai International Airport, St. Thomas Mount is associated with Sage Pirungi. It is believed Sage Birungi meditated in this place and Lord Siva appeared before him in form of Nandhi. Nandeeswarar temple near to St. Thomas Mount railway station stands as testimony for this. This place was called as Pirungi malai. But due to christian invasions, this place name was converted to present name.
