Trichy to Madurai taxi and Urbania
Madurai is just 2.5 hours from Trichy on NH 38, so the Meenakshi Amman Temple is an easy same-day pilgrimage. Many families add Thiruparankundram (one of the Arupadai Veedu), Alagar Kovil and Pazhamudircholai to make a full temple day. It’s also a common drop for Madurai Airport (IXM) flights.
