Culture of Tamil Nadu
Tamil Nadu has a long tradition of venerable culture. Tamil Nadu is known for its rich tradition of
literature, art, music and dance which continue to flourish today. Tamil Nadu is a land most known for
its monumental ancient Hindu temples and classical form of dance Bharata Natyam.
Pongal, also called as Tamizhar Thirunaal (festival of Tamils) or Makara Sankranti elsewhere in India, a
four-day harvest festival is one of the most widely celebrated festivals throughout Tamil Nadu. The
Tamil language saying Thai Pirandhal Vazhi Pirakkum – literally meaning, the birth of the month of Thai
will pave way for new opportunities – is often quoted with reference to this festival.
Tamils have a large number of folk dances. These are performed for every possible occasion, to
celebrate the arrival of seasons, birth of a child, weddings and festivals. Tamil dance is closely
intertwined with the Tamil theatrical tradition. The most celebrated of these dances is the karakattam.
Tamil cuisine is typical of south Indian cuisine, in that rice and rice-derived dishes form the major
portion of a diet (see rice and curry). There are regional sub-varieties namely Chettinadu, Kongunadu,
Nanjilnadu, Madurai, Tirunelveli varieties etc. Traditionally, food is served on abanana leaf instead of
a plate and eaten with the right hand. The world-famous idly-dosai-sambar-vadai is a symbol and as well
as an identity for the modern day Tamil cuisine.
Breakfast and snack items:
include idly, dosai, adai, vadai, pongal, aappam, paniyaram, puttu, uppuma, santhakai, idiyappam and ut
happam. These items are eaten along with sambar, varieties of chatni or podi (spice powder).
Traditionally prepared filter coffee is unique in taste and popular all over the state. The Chettinad region
is famous for its spicy non-vegetarian cuisine, while Ambur and Dindigul are known for theirBiriyani.
Sweet items that are native to Tamil Nadu are athirasam, Chakkarai Pongal and Kuli Paniyaram. Salem is
renowned for its uniquemangoes, Madurai is the place of origin of milk
dessert Jigarthanda while Palani is known for its Panchamirtham.
