- Kanyakumari name comes from Goddess Kumari Amman or the Kanyakumari Temple, which is situated at the shore on the union of the Bay of Bengal, Indian Ocean and the Arabian Sea.
- Actually, Kanya Devi, an avatar of Parvati, was to marry Shiva, but she could not marry him, she vowed to remain virgin all her life.
- The princess Kanya Devi is a virgin goddess. Hence the name KanyaKumari.

Kanyakumari is a place with breath-taking beauty and serene environment. Taking its name for an Indian Goddess, Kanyakumari is geographically the end of Indian mainland.
Kanyakumari looms large in India’s imagination — and with good reason. It is the southernmost tip of mainland India and is the meeting point of the three seas surrounding India: the Indian Ocean, the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal. This is not it, the list for places to visit in kanyakumari is a long list, indeed.
