                Ubayakathirgamam is a sacred Murugan temple located in the Northern Province, considered the twin temple of the original Kataragama. It is often referred to as the "Kathirgamam of the North", serving devotees who cannot travel to the main Kataragama temple. The temple is dedicated to Lord Murugan as Kathirgamam Kandaswamy. Built to mirror the rituals and traditions of the Southern Kataragama, it holds great spiritual importance for local Tamils.

                It is believed that praying here grants the same blessings as visiting the main Kataragama temple. The temple’s location near the Vavuniya-Mannar border makes it accessible for Northern devotees. The annual festival and rituals follow the same style as the original Kataragama, including fire-walking and Kavadi. It is known for fulfilling devotees' wishes, especially in health, marriage, and education. The temple remains a vital center for Murugan worship in the region. Ubayakathirgamam preserves the cultural and religious identity of Tamils in the North.
