The Padmanabhaswamy Temple enforces a dress code requiring men to wear a mundu or dhoti, which should be draped around their lower body. The upper body can remain exposed or be covered with an angavastram shawl. To adhere to the dress code, you may wrap a dhoti or mundu over your pants or shorts. This same dress code applies to young boys as well.
Ladies have the option to wear a saree, dhoti, or pavada paired with a blouse when visiting the temple. Alternatively, they are welcome to wear a t-shirt with a lehenga or a long skirt. To adhere to the dress code, it is permissible to drape a dhoti over jeans or salwar suits. These dress code guidelines also extend to young girls.
