The Srivilliputhur Andal temple located 45 km from Virudhunagar  is another pride of our district. Andal was a Tamil poet-saint and ardent devotee of Lord Thirumal, in whose praise she sang the devotional hymns collection, Thiruppavai. The  tower of Andal temple decorates the emblem of our Tamil Nadu state. Sivakasi town in Virudhunagar district is known for the printing industry, crackers and match boxes and its high industrial nature justifies its nick name of Mini Japan.
