The Coimbatore Thandu Mariamman Temple was established by few of the Tippu sultan’s soldiers in a small manner, before a few hundred years back. One of the Tippu sultan’s soldiers, was an ardent devotee of Parvathi Devi. One day in his dream, Amman has appeared and she has shown him the place where she stays, and ask him to build a temple for her. The next day, with great enthusiasm, the particular soldier took the help of the other soldiers, and he visited the place where amman has spotted to him in his dream, and constructed a small temple in the form of a hut to her.
